1 to 2tablespoonshoney, maple syrup, or sugar-free sweetener
1teaspoonvanilla extract
1/4teaspoonground cinnamon
1 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt(optional)
Toppings: granola, fresh berries or sliced fruit
Instructions
In two 12-16 ounces jars, add half of all ingredients (ex: 2 tablespoons chia seeds each, 1/2 cup oat milk, etc). You can also add to a large bowl to mix and then transfer to two jars.
Mix well until completely combined. Place in the fridge and allow to set for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight. For best chia seed distribution, I recommend giving each jar a stir after about 20 minutes or so before allowing to fully set.
Top with fresh beries, granola, or whatever chia pudding toppings you typically enjoy!
Notes
Let it full set. Chia pudding needs time to thicken, at least 2 to 4 hours, but overnight gives the best consistency.
Adjust the consistency before serving. If the pudding becomes too thick, stir in a splash of oat milk until it reaches your desired texture.
Make chocolate oat milk chia pudding. Stir in 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder (½ tablespoon per jar) during step 1.
Store in individual jars for quick breakfasts or snacks throughout the week.
