Chia Pudding

Chia Pudding

A no-cook, make-ahead breakfast or dessert that comes together in 5 minutes and sets up overnight into something creamy and satisfying.

Time: 5 minutes + overnight refrigeration  ·  Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 45 g (3 Tbsp) chia seeds
  • 240 ml (1 cup) milk of your choice (coconut, oat, or almond work well)
  • 1-2 Tbsp honey, maple syrup, or agave
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of fine sea salt
  • *Toppings:** Fresh fruit, granola, nut butter, coconut flakes, cacao nibs

Method

  1. In a jar or bowl, combine the chia seeds, milk, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. Stir well.
  2. Let sit 5 minutes, then stir again (this prevents clumps from forming).
  3. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours (overnight is ideal). The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and swell into a pudding-like consistency.
  4. Stir before serving. Top with your favorites.
  5. *Variations:**
  6. **Chocolate:** Add 1 Tbsp cocoa powder
  7. **Mango-lime:** Coconut milk + lime zest + diced mango on top
  8. **PB&J:** Stir in 1 Tbsp peanut butter + top with berry jam
  9. **Matcha:** Add 1 tsp matcha powder
  10. *Storage:** Refrigerator for up to 5 days (add toppings fresh).
