Equipment

storage container or jar with lid
measuring spoons and cup
fork or whisk

Ingredients

3 tbsp chia seeds
¾ cup milk of choice (cow’s milk or soy milk work are the best in this)
⅓ cup Greek yoghurt
2-3 tsp pure maple syrup
toppings of choice

Instructions

1. Whisk thoroughly

In a bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds, milk, Greek yoghurt and maple syrup. Whisk very well until fully combined, ensuring there are no dry pockets of chia seeds hiding at the bottom.

2. Rest, then whisk again.

Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes. The chia seeds will begin absorbing the liquid and thickening. Whisk again to break up any clumps - this second whisk is the key to a smooth, evenly set pudding.

3. Chill until thick and creamy

Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight. The pudding should become thick, creamy and spoonable. If it feels too thick after chilling, stir through a small splash of milk to loosen to your desired consistency.

4. Serve

Serve the chia pudding topped with your favourite fruit, nut butter and a crunchy topping like granola, nuts or seeds.
