Chia Seed Pudding

5 from 1 vote
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.

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

Equipment

  • Medium bowl or Glass or Jar
  • Fork

Method
 

  1. 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.
  2. 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).
  3. 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.
  4. When ready to serve, add toppings of your choice and enjoy!
