SpicenEasy's Basic Overnight Chia Pudding
-
Prep Time: 5 minutes (+ overnight soaking)
-
Cook Time: 0 minutes
-
Serves: 1
Ingredients:
-
3 tbsp SpicenEasy Chia Seeds
-
1 cup milk of choice (dairy, almond, coconut, oat)
-
1-2 tsp maple syrup, honey, or other sweetener
-
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
-
Toppings: Fresh berries, sliced banana, nuts, coconut flakes, cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Mix Ingredients: In a jar or bowl, whisk together chia seeds, milk, sweetener, and vanilla (if using). Make sure the chia seeds are well distributed and not clumping together.
-
Initial Rest: Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps that may have formed.
-
Refrigerate: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. The pudding will thicken to a creamy, spoonable consistency.
-
Serve: In the morning, give it a stir. If it's too thick, add a splash more milk. Add your favourite toppings and enjoy!
Chef's Tip: *The basic ratio is 3 tablespoons of chia seeds to 1 cup of liquid. For a single-serve jar, this is perfect! You can blend the mixture before refrigerating for an ultra-smooth texture. For chocolate chia pudding, add 1 tbsp cocoa powder. For a protein boost, stir in a scoop of your favourite protein powder with the milk.*
