Oat Milk Chia Pudding
Description
Oat Milk Chia Pudding uses soaked chia seeds in oat milk sweetened with maple syrup and flavored with vanilla extract. After mixing, chilling the pudding for at least two hours or overnight allows the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and expand, creating a thick and creamy texture. Stirring the pudding midway through chilling helps prevent clumps and improves uniformity. This pudding offers a mild sweetness and a smooth yet slightly gelatinous texture from the chia seeds.
The pudding works well as a make-ahead dish and can be customized with various toppings such as yogurt, fresh or dried fruit, nuts, or seeds just before serving, adding different textures and flavors. It is a plant-based option suitable for those avoiding dairy.
