Ingredients
Scale
Chia Pudding Base
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 125ml oat milk (or any nut milk, rice milk, or dairy milk)
- 2 tsp maple syrup
Toppings
- Fresh fruit such as berries, banana, kiwis, or mango
- Additional maple syrup, for drizzle
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, add 2 tablespoons of chia seeds, 125ml of oat milk, and 2 teaspoons of maple syrup. Stir well to make sure the chia seeds are evenly dispersed and not clumping.
- Refrigerate: Cover the jar or bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 8 hours. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the milk and form a thick, pudding-like texture.
- Serve: When ready to eat, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps. Top with your choice of fresh fruit such as berries, banana slices, kiwi, or mango pieces. Finish with a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness if desired.
Notes
- For a creamier texture, stir the mixture once or twice during the soaking period.
- You can substitute chia seeds with similar quantities of flax seeds, but texture will differ.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup to your taste.
- Use any type of milk according to your dietary preference—nut, rice, dairy, or oat milk all work well.
- This pudding can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator.
