Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chia seeds black or white
  • 4 cups plant-based milk I like organic soy or flax milk
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp monk fruit

Instructions

  • Measure chia seeds, and carefully pour them into a 32oz mason jar.
  • Fill the mason jar to about half full with the plant based milk, and stir gently with a knife or fork.
  • Add monk fruit and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly to combine.
  • Add the remaining plant based milk to just below the rim of the mason jar. Stir thoroughly to combine.
  • Place the lid on the mason jar, and let the chia seed pudding sit for approximately 10-15min.
  • Stir one more time, breaking up all of the clumps, and scraping down the sides for any remaining chia seeds.
  • Cover tightly and place the chia seed pudding in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • After a couple of hours, your pudding will be good to serve. Enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Tips:
  • I like to use a knife or fork to prevent the chia seeds from clumping and sticking to the utensil. Using a spoon causes the seeds to clump and stick to the spoon.
  • You can eat your pudding in as little as 15min., however, it is best when you allow it to sit in the fridge for a couple of hours to reach its full thickness consistency.
  • To serve, place your chia seed pudding in a bowl, then add anything that sounds good to you, such as berries, sliced-up fruit, nuts, seeds, etc.
  • If you do not want to use monk fruit, feel free to use other sweeteners such as honey, maple syrup, stevia, or sugar.
  • You can use black or white chia seeds for this recipe. Nutritionally speaking, they are similar.
How to Store:
  • Chia seed pudding should be stored in the fridge in a tightly sealed, preferably glass, container.
  • It will last in the fridge for approximately 6-7 days.
