Ingredients & Substitutions
Chia seeds are fantastic for their omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. If you don’t have almond almond milk, feel free to use oat almond milk, coconut almond milk, or any plant-based almond milk you love. The sweetness of the pudding can be adjusted with more or less maple syrup, or you can skip it altogether if you're feeling extra health-conscious!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep mine in a glass jar; it looks pretty and stays fresh for days.
- •Feel free to get creative with toppings! Sometimes I sprinkle on some cinnamon or a dollop of nut butter for extra flavor.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I'll throw in a tablespoon of cocoa powder for a chocolatey twist.
- •You can swap out the maple syrup for agave nectar or even mashed banana for a different sweetener.
Storage & Freezing
Store your chia pudding in an airtight container in the fridge. It keeps well for about 5 days, and you can enjoy it cold or bring it to room temperature before eating.
