Strawberry Chia Seed Pudding:
- 12–16 oz. strawberries, fresh + roughly chopped or frozen + thawed, or other fruit (see notes)
- 1 cup milk, any kind, dairy or plant-based (I prefer oat milk)
- 1 cup yogurt, any kind, dairy or plant-based (I prefer whole milk plain yogurt)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey, if you prefer
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
For Serving (Optional):
- fresh chopped strawberries or other fruit
- whipped cream
Instructions
- Add ingredients to bowl: Combine strawberries, milk, yogurt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup in a medium bowl. Blend until smooth.
- Add chia seeds: Stir in chia seeds until well mixed.
- Refrigerate: Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight until a pudding-like consistency forms.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh fruit or whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
- Any fruit, frozen or fresh, can be used. Experiment with different combinations.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based milk, yogurt, and maple syrup.
- If pudding doesn’t thicken enough after 4 hours, let it sit longer.
- To make it thicker, reduce the milk and yogurt by 1/4 cup each.
