  • 1/2 cup Chia Seeds fresh
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Zest finely grated
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Salt
Optional Toppings
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Berries for serving
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Almonds optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Citrus Zester
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Storage Containers
  • Scoop
  • Tray
  • Freezer
  • Refrigerator

Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until fully blended.
  2. Stir in chia seeds thoroughly. Rest for 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumps and encourage a creamy texture.
  3. Pour evenly into storage containers and cover tightly.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick, smooth, and spoonable.
  5. Top with berries and almonds before serving. Stir in extra milk if you prefer a softer consistency.

Notes

Use slightly more milk for a softer pudding or extra chia seeds for a firmer texture. Freeze plain portions for up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Add toppings after chilling for easier assembly and fresher flavor. Customize with yogurt, coconut, fresh fruit, cinnamon, or vanilla. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
