Overnight Chia Pudding - Plus 10 Flavours!
Description
The Overnight Chia Pudding consists of chia seeds soaked in unsweetened cashew or almond milk, sweetened optionally with maple or date syrup. When refrigerated 6 hours or overnight, the seeds absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding with a mild nutty flavor. The texture is tapioca-like but can be blended for a smoother, more traditional pudding consistency if preferred.
This pudding can be topped with fresh fruits, nuts, shredded coconut, or granola to add flavor contrasts and texture. It creates a convenient, nutrient-dense meal component that can be prepared in advance, making it suitable for busy mornings or portable snacks.
Adjusting the seed-to-liquid ratio and resting time influences thickness; more seeds or longer refrigeration yields a firmer pudding. The recipe adapts easily to multiple flavour variations, enabling diverse taste profiles from a simple base.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cashew milk or almond milk, unsweetened
- 3.5 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or date syrup, optional
Instructions
- Add all 3 base ingredients to an airtight container or mason jar and mix well or shake vigorously. Refrigerate overnight or 6 hours.
- Enjoy topped with fresh fruit, chopped nuts, shredded coconut or granola.
Notes
- Make larger batches and portion into small jars for several ready breakfasts or snacks.
- Re-stir or shake pudding 10-15 minutes after refrigerating to prevent clumps and improve texture.
- If too thin, add extra chia seeds and refrigerate longer to thicken the pudding.
- Blend the pudding in a high-speed blender for a smoother texture without tapioca-like seeds.
- Store the pudding refrigerated for 4-5 days.
