Ingredients
Scale
1 cup almond milk or coconut or oat milk
¼ cup chia seeds
1 tablespoon sweetener (honey, agave, maple syrup)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Blueberry Sauce (optional)
1 cup frozen blueberries
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the milk, vanilla extract, sweetener, and chia seeds. Mix until completely combined. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then stir the mixture again to break up any chia clumps that may have formed.
Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge. Allow the pudding to set for at least 3 hours or ideally overnight. Prepare the optional blueberry sauce while the pudding sets in the fridge.
Remove the pudding from the fridge and stir before serving. Divide the pudding into 2 jars or bowls and top with the blueberry sauce. Garnish with fresh fruit or granola if desired. Enjoy!
For the blueberry sauce, in a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, and lemon juice over medium/high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
Mash the blueberries and add the cornstarch. Allow to simmer until the sauce begins to thicken.
Remove from heat and allow the sauce to cool before spooning over the chia puddings.
Notes
Letting the pudding set overnight enhances the texture.
Adjust the sweetener according to your preference.
