Ingredients
Scale
Chia Pudding
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 125 ml oat milk (or any nut milk, rice milk, or dairy milk)
- 2 tsp maple syrup, plus a drizzle to serve
Toppings
- Fruit such as berries, banana, kiwis, or mango, to serve
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with 125 ml of oat milk and 2 teaspoons of maple syrup. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumping.
- Chill Overnight: Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
- Serve with Fruit: When ready to eat, stir the chia pudding to break any lumps. Top with your choice of fresh fruit such as berries, sliced banana, kiwi, or mango, then drizzle a little more maple syrup on top for added sweetness.
Notes
- For a creamier texture, use full-fat dairy milk or add a spoonful of yogurt.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
- Adjust sweetness to taste by varying the amount of syrup.
- Chia pudding can be prepared up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- Mix the pudding well before serving as chia seeds tend to settle.
