Chia Seed Pudding
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup milk (any variety: dairy or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 to 2 teaspoons sweetener (such as honey, maple syrup, or sugar), adjust to taste
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl or jar, thoroughly mix chia seeds, milk, brewed coffee, and sweetener until well combined to ensure chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Refrigerate Overnight: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquids and form a pudding-like texture.
- Stir and Serve: Before serving, stir the pudding gently to break up any clumps. Enjoy chilled as a refreshing breakfast or snack.
Notes
- Use any type of milk based on your preference or dietary needs (almond, soy, cow’s milk, etc.).
- Adjust the sweetness according to taste or leave it unsweetened for a more natural coffee flavor.
- For stronger coffee flavor, you can increase the coffee quantity and decrease milk accordingly.
- Optional toppings include nuts, cacao nibs, fresh fruit, or whipped cream for added texture and flavor.
- This pudding keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
