Ingredients
  

Pudding
  • cups 2 dairy or plant-based
  • cup 1/2 fresh
  • cups 2 hulled and chopped
  • tablespoons 2 adjust to taste
  • teaspoon 1
  • Pinch
Toppings
  • cup 1/4 optional
  • tablespoons 2 optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Jar or Container
  • Refrigerator
  • Spoon

Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
  2. Stir in chia seeds and chopped strawberries. Mix thoroughly so the seeds distribute evenly.
  3. Rest for 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumps and create an even texture.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick, creamy, and spoonable.
  5. Stir before serving. Add extra milk for a softer pudding or leave chilled for a thicker consistency. Top with strawberries and granola.

Notes

For a softer texture, add extra milk before serving. For a thicker consistency, chill longer. Freeze individual portions for quick breakfasts and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Keep the pudding cold during assembly for the best texture. Customize with blueberries, raspberries, cocoa, or cinnamon. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
