Chia Seed Pudding
I mostly enjoy chia seed pudding as a healthy snack because it keeps you full until your next meal and is also good for your health. In the heat, you can also try this for breakfast. In summer, I don't want to eat something heavy, so I prefer chia seed pudding because it's cool, creamy, and lightly sweet.

Cuisine American
- 2 cups light coconut milk or homemade almond milk
- 6 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- Optional toppings
- Tart cherries
- Blueberries
- Chopped nuts or granola
- Coconut flakes
- Maple syrup
First, take a large Mason jar with a lid and add all the ingredients. Ensure the jar has a capacity of 3 to 4 cups.
In a jar with a 3 to 4 cup capacity, mix together the milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt.
Then, fasten the lid tightly and shake the jar vigorously to thoroughly mix the ingredients.
Place the jar in the fridge for a few hours to let the pudding set.
Stir well to break up any clumps. If the chia seeds remain clumped, they won't absorb the liquid properly, resulting in a lumpy, crunchy pudding.
After stirring, cover the jar and return it to the refrigerator to chill overnight.
Top with your choice of fruit, nuts, coconut flakes, and a drizzle of maple syrup before serving.
