Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2.5 tbsp chia seeds High-quality, organic chia seeds will provide the best texture and flavor.
  • 2/3 cup almond milk Unsweetened almond milk for a lighter texture; can substitute coconut or whole milk for creaminess.
  • 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup) Natural sweetness from honey, or use pure maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon Adds warmth and depth; optional vanilla extract can enhance flavor.
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced Can substitute with bananas, blueberries, or seasonal fruits.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pour the almond milk into a jar or container and add chia seeds, honey, and ground cinnamon. Stir vigorously for about 1 minute.
  2. Allow the mixture to sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
  3. Cover the jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to set.
  4. While the pudding chills, hull and slice the fresh strawberries or any other fruit you're using.
  5. Once the pudding has set, give it a quick stir and spoon it into a bowl or glass, top with fresh strawberries, and enjoy cold.

Notes

For best texture, ensure ingredients are at room temperature. Store chia pudding in the fridge for up to five days; stir before serving. Customize with different toppings or flavors to suit your taste.
