Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds Look for high-quality, organic chia seeds for the best nutritional punch.
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt Opt for plain, full-fat Greek yogurt for a thick and creamy texture.
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy) Whole milk adds richness, while almond or oat milk keeps it light and dairy-free.
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup Adjust sweetness to your preference. For a vegan option, use maple syrup.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract A splash of quality vanilla enhances the flavor, making it feel luxurious.
Toppings (optional)
  • fresh fruits or nuts Use seasonal fruits like berries, bananas, or nuts like almonds and walnuts for a crunchy finish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  2. Slowly add the chia seeds to your yogurt mixture, stirring gently to ensure they are evenly distributed.
  3. Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight.
  4. Once thickened, give the pudding another gentle stir and spoon it into jars or bowls.
  5. Top with your favorite fresh fruits or nuts before serving.

Notes

Store your Chia Seed Pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Consider blending the mixture for a smoother consistency.
