Ingredients
Chia Pudding Base
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1/2 cup oat milk
- 1 tablespoon cacao powder
- 1 teaspoon honey
Optional Toppings
- 1/4 cup raspberries
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: Add the chia seeds to a small jar or cup. Pour in the oat milk and stir to combine. Then add the cacao powder and honey, stirring well until the mixture is completely combined.
- Refrigerate: Place the jar or cup in the refrigerator for at least two hours to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding consistency.
- Stir and Serve: Remove the pudding from the refrigerator, stir thoroughly to ensure a smooth, even texture, and then top with raspberries or your favorite toppings. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, stir the mixture halfway through the refrigeration period.
- Use any plant milk of your choice if oat milk is unavailable.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or use maple syrup for a vegan version.
- The pudding can be made the night before for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
- Add nuts or seeds on top for extra crunch and nutrients.
