Chia Seed Pudding

This is my classic and standard recipe for making a delicious chia seed pudding. It’s a super simple and adaptable recipe. The thick and creamy texture of chia seed pudding also makes it perfect for layering ingredients into a parfait using your favorite granola, yogurt, and fruit.

Equipment

  • Medium bowl or Glass or Jar
  • Fork

Ingredients
 

  • ½ cup milk of choice
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp of honey, or other sweetener (optional)
  • yogurt, fresh fruit, coconut flakes, or chocolate chip , for topping

Instructions

  • In a bowl, jar, or glass, add ½ cup milk of choice and 2 tbsp chia seeds. Mix well with a fork until all the chia seeds are incorporated into the milk. (Using a fork to mix the chia with milk helps separate the seeds). At this point, the consistency will be still liquid but you shouldn’t see any clumps of chia seed.
  • Let the chia seed pudding stand for about 5-10 minutes, so it can start to gel, then add 1 tsp of honey and stir again. Give it a last check if there are no clumps (don’t refrigerate until the chia seed pudding is free of clumps).
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 7 days. During refrigeration, the chia seeds will have absorbed all the milk and sweetener, making a nice and creamy pudding.
  • When ready to serve, add toppings of your choice and enjoy!
