Why You’ll Love This Overnight Chia Seeds Pudding Recipe
I’m the type of person that when I really like something, I really exhaust it. Then suddenly, I’m over it. For now, my morning love affair with avocado toast and a fried egg is on indefinite hold, so I needed something else, something easier, delicious and filling. Enter the overnight chia seeds pudding.
It’s so satisfying and filling, and you can customize it with your own favorite toppings.
Chia seeds are a great source of carbohydrates, healthy fats, protein and fiber, and soaking them actually unlocks these nutrients and makes them more accessible for your body, releasing energy and fuel throughout the day.
One of my favorite things is that you can make it ahead of time and have breakfast on standby for the week. It’s also great if you have guests staying with you.
How To Make Chia Seeds Pudding Overnight
You can use milk of your choice to make these protein and fiber filled cups for breakfast, but I really prefer coconut milk. It gives an added flavor to the chia and makes for a great non-dairy option.
The ratio I use is simple 4 tablespoons of chia seeds to 1 cup of coconut milk.
Then I customize it with berries, bananas, peanut butter, coconut shavings and a light drizzle of honey or agave.
