Chia Pudding with Fruits & Seeds in a Jar

​​​

Ingredients

For Chia Pudding Base

• 2 tablespoons chia seeds

• 1 cup milk (almond milk, coconut milk, or regular milk)

• 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

For Toppings

• Chopped seasonal fruits (banana, strawberries, mango, or apple)

• 1 tablespoon mixed seeds (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, or flax seeds)

• Nuts or granola (optional)

Method

1. Prepare the Base
   In a jar or bowl, mix chia seeds, milk, honey, and vanilla extract.

2. Mix Well
   Stir properly to avoid chia seeds clumping together.

3. Refrigerate
   Cover and refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours or overnight. The chia seeds will absorb milk and create a pudding-like texture.

4. Add Toppings
   Before serving, add chopped fruits, seeds, nuts, or granola.

5. Serve Chilled
   Enjoy directly from the jar as a grab-and-go breakfast or snack.
