🥣 Chia Pudding
Chia pudding is a nutritious, no-cook dessert or breakfast made by soaking chia seeds in a liquid until they form a gel-like consistency. It’s rich in fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and protein.
🥄 Basic Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup milk or plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, etc.)
- Sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or agave, optional)
- Flavorings: vanilla extract, cocoa powder, or fruit
🍰 Simple Preparation
- Mix chia seeds, milk, sweetener, and flavorings in a bowl or jar.
- Stir well to prevent clumps.
- Refrigerate for at least 2–4 hours or overnight until it thickens.
- Top with fresh fruits, nuts, coconut flakes, or granola before serving.
đź’Ş Health Benefits

đź’ˇ Tips
- Stir once or twice during the first 30 minutes to prevent clumping
