Creamy Vegan Chia Pudding: A Perfect Snack

Vegan Chia Pudding Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Toppings:

  • Fresh fruit (berries, banana slices, mango, etc.)
  • Granola
  • Nuts and seeds (almonds, walnuts, coconut flakes)
  • Nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew butter)
  • Cinnamon or cacao powder

Instructions:

  1. Combine Ingredients:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to prevent clumping.
  2. Mix Thoroughly:
    • Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
  3. Refrigerate:
    • Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture to a jar with a lid. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like consistency.
  4. Serve:
    • Once the chia pudding is ready, give it a good stir. Serve in bowls or jars and top with your choice of fresh fruit, granola, nuts, or any other toppings you like.

Tips:

  • Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less maple syrup.
  • You can flavor the pudding with cocoa powder or matcha for a different twist.
  • Chia pudding can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, making it a great meal prep option.

Enjoy your delicious and nutritious vegan chia pudding!
