Chia Seed Pudding Recipe
Description
The Chia Seed Pudding Recipe involves mixing coconut milk, water, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla, and a pinch of salt, then allowing the mixture to rest and thicken in the refrigerator. Stirring a couple of times during the initial waiting period helps distribute the seeds evenly to prevent clumping. The end result is a pudding textured with tiny gelatinous chia seeds surrounded by creamy liquid.
Serving suggestions include fresh berries and shredded coconut, adding natural sweetness and contrasting texture. It works well as a light breakfast or dessert. The recipe notes the importance of the set time, which is typically at least two hours or preferably overnight for best texture.
The pudding should be stirred a couple of times early on to achieve uniform thickness. It can be stored in the fridge, making it practical for prepping ahead. Optional toppings provide variety and added flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk can be light, canned
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup chia seeds
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- sea salt a pinch
- Berry to serve, optional
- coconut to serve, optional
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl. Wait 5 minutes then mix again. The pudding should have started to thicken by this point. If it hasn't, wait another 5 minutes and mix again.
- Cover the bowl and place it into your fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Serve the chia pudding with fresh berries and a sprinkle of coconut over the top.
Notes
- Allow the pudding to chill for at least 2 hours or overnight to achieve the right thickness.
- Stir the mixture a few times during the initial 10 minutes to prevent clumps.
- Serve with fresh berries and shredded coconut to add flavor and texture.
