Chia Seed Pudding:
Ingredients:
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond, coconut, or soy)
1-2 tablespoons sweetener (honey, maple syrup, agave nectar)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Fresh fruits, nuts, or granola for topping (optional)
Instructions:
Gather Ingredients:
Collect all the ingredients needed for the chia seed pudding.
Mix Chia Seeds and Milk:
In a bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds and milk. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed in the liquid.
Add Sweetener:
Add the sweetener of your choice (honey, maple syrup, agave nectar). Adjust the amount based on your desired level of sweetness.
Add Vanilla Extract (Optional):
If using, add vanilla extract for extra flavor. Stir the mixture well.
Mix Again and Wait:
Stir the chia seed mixture again after a few minutes to prevent clumping. Then, let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes.
Stir Again:
After the initial wait, stir the mixture once more to break up any clumps of chia seeds that may have formed.
Refrigerate:
Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate the chia seed pudding for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
Check and Stir:
After the refrigeration period, check the pudding. It should be thick and have a gel-like consistency. Stir well to ensure an even texture.
Serve:
Scoop the chia seed pudding into serving bowls or glasses.
Add Toppings (Optional):
Top the pudding with fresh fruits, nuts, or granola for added texture and flavor.
Enjoy:
Your chia seed pudding is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it as a healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert.
Feel free to experiment with different flavors by adding cocoa powder, cinnamon, or other extracts. Chia seed pudding is highly customizable, so you can adjust the ingredients to suit your taste preferences.
