Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Whisk milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
- Stir in chia seeds evenly. Rest for 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumps and create a creamy texture.
- Divide the mixture evenly into glass jars, leaving room for toppings.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick and spoonable.
- Top with blueberries and toasted coconut before serving. Add a splash of milk for a softer consistency if desired.
Notes
Use extra milk for a softer pudding or slightly more chia seeds for a thicker texture. Freeze sealed jars without toppings for up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Add toppings after thawing for the easiest assembly and best texture. Customize with strawberries, raspberries, vanilla yogurt, poppy seeds, or fresh mint. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
