Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 321kcal
Equipment
- Mason jar or sealable container
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats gluten free, if required
- 1.5 tablespoon chia seeds
- ½ cup + 1 tbsp non-dairy milk
- ¼ tsp cardamom or cinnamon (see notes)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, cardamom, maple syrup and milk of choice to a mason jar or container that can be sealed. Stir well, and place in the fridge. After 30 minutes, if you can, give it another stir to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
- Remove from the fridge, stir again and either enjoy it as it is, or top with fruit, jam, nuts or seeds.
Notes
- I've tested this recipe a few times, with different amounts of milk. The half cup plus one tablespoon gave a creamy texture. Adding more milk made it too soup-like for my taste. If you like a very thick pudding, you can reduce to half a cup of milk.
- Cinnamon can be used as a swap for cardamom, but is debated in terms of histamine level.
- Vanilla extract can also be used, if tolerated.
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- non-dairy milks have various scores. Use the type that works best for you.
- cardamom scores 0, but has some notes, in French, that some varieties may not be well tolerated.
