Equipment

  • Measuring Spoons and Cups
  • Mixing bowl or jar
  • Whisk or spoon
  • Plastic wrap or jar lid
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients
  

For the Chia Pudding

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk vanilla or plain
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • 1-2 teaspoons sugar-free sweetener e.g., stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol, to taste

Optional Toppings

  • Fresh berries e.g., raspberries, blueberries, or strawberries
  • Unsweetened shredded coconut
  • Almonds or walnuts chopped
  • Sugar-free chocolate chips
  • A sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg

Instructions
 

Step 1: Combine Ingredients

  • In a mixing bowl or jar, combine 3 tablespoons of chia seeds, 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (if using), and your preferred sweetener.
  • Whisk the mixture thoroughly to evenly distribute the chia seeds and prevent clumping.

Step 2: Let It Rest

  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or seal the jar with a lid.
  • Place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.

Step 3: Stir and Serve

  • Once the pudding has thickened, give it a good stir to redistribute the chia seeds evenly.
  • Serve in bowls or jars and top with your choice of fresh berries, nuts, or other optional toppings.
  • Enjoy immediately or store in the fridge for up to 5 days for a quick grab-and-go snack.
