Notes

  • Dairy-Free/ Vegan: use a good quality vegan yogurt and your favorite plant-based milk (I love oat milk!).
  • Stir the mixture twice. It’s essential to eliminate any lumps and bumps in your chia pudding mixture.
  • Adjust consistency. If the pudding is a little thick, you can thin it back by adding a little more milk.
  • Add toppings. While the base flavor is wonderful, toppings take this pudding to the next level.
  • Play around with yogurt flavors. By doing this, you’ll never get bored of this tasty treat. My favorite ones to use in this recipe are mango, blueberry or vanilla.
