Vanilla Chia Pudding

Vanilla Chia Pudding is a great healthy breakfast or snacks. It’s filling and packed full of protein, fibre, antioxidants and it’s vegan and with no added refined sugar.

I like to serve my chia pudding with chia jam and fresh berries. In the glasses I have layered vanilla chia pudding with raspberry chia jam and greek yoghurt and topped it with raspberries. The bowl is filled with vanilla chia pudding and topped with Cherry Chia Jam and a variety of fresh berries that are in season. I also added some chia seeds and puffed quinoa for some different texture. Mix and experiment to find your favorite flavor combinations!

Another great option is Forest Fruit Chia Jam, it is easy to make and a lot healthier then store bought jam.

Ingredients to make this Chia pudding with vanilla:

• Almond milk
• pinch of vanilla powder or extract
• Maple syrup 
• Chia seeds

Instructions:

1. Stir all the ingredient together in a bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes and stir again until the lumps are gone. Cover and refrigerate over night.
2. Serve with chia jam, yoghurt and fresh berries. Optional top with some chia seeds and puffed quinoa.Enjoy!

Tips for making this Chia pudding recipe:

• Make sure the chia seeds are mixed in well and that no more lumps remain. 
• For best results, let these chia pudding cakes cill out in the fridge overnight. If you are short on time, chill for a minimum of 4 hours.
• Taste the chia pudding before adding maple syrup, I don’t like it so sweet, sometimes I don’t add any sweetener at all. I find the almond milk has a sweet flavor on its own. Agave syrup or coconut sugar can also be used. If you are using coconut sugar, add it to the milk when it is hot so it dissolves.
