Greek Yogurt Chia Pudding
Description
Greek Yogurt Chia Pudding mixes chia seeds with a blend of fat-free Greek yogurt and coconut-rice milk, sweetened with maple syrup and flavored with cinnamon. The mixture is refrigerated for at least four hours, giving time for the chia seeds to swell and thicken the pudding, contributing a slightly gelatinous texture. This process yields a balanced consistency between creamy and gel-like.
The pudding can be served directly in jars or cups but is often stirred again and transferred to bowls before adding toppings such as berries or nuts, enhancing both taste and texture contrast. The recipe also suggests adapting consistency by adjusting the ratio of yogurt to milk, and offers the option to blend the mixture before setting for a creamier finish.
This pudding works well as a standalone snack or a light breakfast and provides a filling option thanks to the combination of fiber-rich chia seeds and protein from Greek yogurt. Adding oats before refrigeration can increase satiation.
