Equipment

  • mason jars or glass dish that can be sealed

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1.5 tablespoon ground flaxseed also known as milled flaxseed
  • 2 teaspoon maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon cardamom or cinnamon, optional*
  • ½ cup plant milk

Instructions

  • Add the chia seeds, ground flaxseed, maple syrup, cardamom or cinnamon (if using) to a mason jar or container that can be sealed. Pour in the plant milk of choice.
  • Use a spoon or whisk to stir the mixture so the chia seeds and flax are distributed through the milk.
  • Place the pudding in the refrigerator for 2 hours, giving it a stir after 30 minutes if possible, to break up any clumps of chia seeds and mix them into the milk. Top with fruits, jam or nut or seed butter to preference to serve!

Notes

*Cinnamon scores 0 on the SIGHI list, but is debated in terms of histamine content between lists. Only use if well tolerated.
  • If using oat milk, check that it is gluten free, if you have that dietary requirement.
  • To thin the pudding, simply add a dash of milk.
  • Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
