Creamy, light, and endlessly customisable – this chia pudding is one of those quietly powerful recipes that does a lot with very little. With just a few pantry staples and five minutes of prep, you get a nourishing bowl that’s rich in fibre, healthy fats, and plant-based protein. It’s naturally gluten-free, dairy-optional, and fits easily into busy routines.
The magic lies in the chia seeds, which absorb liquid and swell into a pudding-like texture without any cooking. You can flavour it simply with vanilla and a few drops of maple syrup or dress it up with seasonal fruits, nuts, and spices. It’s easy to prep the night before and enjoy on-the-go the next morning.
Whether you’re trying to add more fibre to your day, cut down on processed breakfast options, or just need a no-fuss sweet snack, this chia pudding checks all the boxes. Chill it well, top it fresh, and you’re good to go.
