Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (optional)
Garnish
- Fresh mint, for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until well combined and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Initial Rest: Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the chia seeds to start absorbing the liquid and prevent clumps from forming.
- Stir Again: After the 5-minute rest, stir the mixture thoroughly to break up any clumps and promote even thickening.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the pudding to thicken to a creamy texture.
- Add Toppings: Before serving, top the chia pudding with fresh blueberries and a dollop of Greek yogurt if desired.
- Garnish: Add fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and flavor to finish.
Notes
- Add granola for extra crunch and texture contrast.
- Keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it ideal for meal prep.
- Use frozen blueberries if fresh berries are not available, just thaw before use.
