  • 1 teaspoon orange zest freshly grated
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Tray
  • Scoop

Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, orange juice, orange zest, maple syrup, vanilla, and chia seeds until completely blended.
  2. Let the mixture rest for five minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumps and create a creamy texture.
  3. Divide evenly into jars, cover, and refrigerate overnight until thick and fully set.
  4. Stir gently before serving. Add a splash of milk if you prefer a softer consistency.
  5. Top with orange segments, granola, and toasted coconut before serving chilled.

Notes

For a softer texture, add extra milk. For a thicker pudding, increase chia seeds slightly. Freeze plain jars for longer storage and thaw overnight before serving. Add crunchy toppings just before eating for the best assembly. Customize with berries, cinnamon, vanilla yogurt, or chopped nuts. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.
