  • Milk: You may use any milk of choice. To keep this recipe vegan-friendly, use almond or coconut milk.
  • Sweetener: for non-vegan, use honey. Maple syrup or agave are also great options.
  • How to: There are two ways you can store this to turn into pudding. Either store the huge bowl with the mixture in the fridge and divide it up the next day or mix the ingredients well and divide into mason jars and then store overnight.
  • Allow the chia seeds to sit for a few minutes, mix again until the chia seeds start to float around the milk, then place in the fridge to set.
  • Top with any toppings of choice. Fruits make great topping options.
  • Chia pudding stores well in the fridge for up to one week.
