It is so easy to make and so healthy and filling. Chia Pudding makes a great snack, breakfast and dessert. This chia pudding is made with just 3 ingredients – Milk (Of your choice), Chia Seeds and sweetener (of your choice). A snack that will leave you feeling satisfied and so energized.

You can make Chia pudding with almond milk, coconut milk (for vegan options)or any other milk of your choice. I made mine using regular milk.

You can add any fruit preserve (try my Black Plum preserve with ginger to go with this), chocolate, fresh fruits etc in place of sweetener. I topped my chia pudding with cranberries and walnuts and used cranberry sauce as a sweetener, layered in between chia pudding.

How to make Chia Pudding?

1. Start with adding chia seeds to milk (any milk) in a bowl or mason jars directly.
2. Add a sweetener of your choice to the milk. You can leave out the sweetener if you would prefer to sweeten the pudding with any fruits preserves or both later.
3. Add chia seeds and stir well. The ratio that works best for the desired pudding consistency is 2 tablespoon of chia seeds for 1/2 a cup of milk.
4. Cover and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight or a minimum of three hours.
5. The chia seeds will absorb the milk and swell up, giving a perfect pudding like consistency and hence obviously Chia pudding. Easy right???
6. Once the chia pudding is ready, add your favourite fruit preserves, fresh fruits to top with, chocolate or anything you like.
