Chia Pudding

 

We love chia pudding because it so versatile. You can add any combination of ingredients, similar to how you would eat oatmeal. There is no limit. This recipe does need to prepare in advance but it is something you can prepare a large quantity of and then breakdown into smaller portions.

  • 2 ½ cups of Unsweetened Almond or Coconut Milk
  • ½ cup Chia Seeds
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  1. Combine all ingredients in a mason jar or sealable container.
  2. Let mixture sit at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
  3. The mixture should have a pudding like consistency once set.
  4. We like to add nuts and Agave Syrup to our chia pudding, but you can also add fresh fruit, jams or nut butters.
