Chia seed pudding
I love chia seed pudding for a dessert and I make it often to throw in the fridge.
It is incredibly delicious, easy to make, fun to eat, feels like a treat but also happens to be very healthy. Chia seed pudding is loaded with omega-3s, fiber, and protein. It’s also naturally gluten-free and vegan. Packed with antioxidants, it likely contributes to a dewy, flawless complexion! Here’s how to make this creation of almond milk, chia seeds, cinnamon, vanilla extract, a little extra agave, and berries!
Ingredients
2 cups almond (or coconut) milk
1 cup chia seeds
4 tbsp agave syrup, maple syrup, honey, or other sweetener of choice
Dash of cinnamon
Optional additions (use as mix-ins or toppings):
A little extra Agave
Berries (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, goji, mulberries), or other fruit of choice
Coconut, shredded or flaked
Chocolate chips
Granola
Nut butter
Sliced almonds
1 spoonful of raw honey
Preparation
In a bowl or mason jar, stir together chia seeds, milk, sweetener of choice, cinnamon, and vanilla. If you’re using a mason jar, you can put the lid on and shake the mixture to combine everything.
Once the mixture is well combined, let it sit for 5 minutes, give it another stir/shake to break up any clumps of chia seeds, cover and put the mixture in the fridge to “set” for 1-2 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve top the pudding with berries and any other topping additions and enjoy. *Make sure to chew the chia seeds while you’re eating it, for best digestion!
Chia seed pudding can be stored for up to one week in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
