    Chia Puddings are a really great option for breakfast or even to have a treat.

    The great thing about them is that they are so easy to prepare. You make it up the night before and put it in the refrigerator to set, and it is then waiting for you when you wake up.

    WHY YOU WILL LOVE THIS RECIPE

    Quick and Easy - chia seed puddings are really easy to make and you let them set overnight in your refrigerator so that they are ready to eat the following morning.

    Allergy Friendly - chia puddings are suitable for people with gluten free and dairy free allergies & intolerances as well as many other dietary requirements.

    Healthy wholefood ingredients - which are easy to find at any supermarket.

    INGREDIENTS YOU NEED

    • Chia seeds
    • Almond milk
    • Sweetener - rice malt syrup, honey or maple syrup
    • Vanilla extract

    HOW TO PREPARE

    You add your ingredients to glass or bowl and mix thoroughly. Then leave in the refrigerator to set overnight.

    The next morning, remove from the refrigerator, top with your fave fruit and enjoy!

    RECIPE TOPPINGS

    I topped this pudding with fresh raspberries, but you could use any fruit you wish. I also love to add pineapple, passionfruit, blueberries, strawberries, mango, shredded apple or even kiwi fruit.

    RECIPE SUBSTITUTIONS

    Sweeteners - I tend to normally use maple syrup or honey in my chia puddings, but you could easily swap it for brown rice syrup if you wanted. You could also omit the sweetener altogether or try with some stevia. Totally up to you and what your preference is.

    Almond Milk - you can swap the almond milk with any other plant based milk like oat milk or coconut milk.
