Ingredients

  • 1 cup non-dairy milk
  • 4 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom powder (or half teaspoon for less spice)
  • ½ tablespoon desiccated coconut optional
  • ¾ cup blueberries
  • ½ tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • Combine the chia seeds, non-dairy milk, cardamom powder and coconut (if using) in a jar or tupperware that can be sealed. Stir very thoroughly and place in the fridge for at least two hours. Stir halfway through to break up the chia seeds.
  • Add the blueberries to a pan and heat on very low for 4-5 minutes until about half of them burst and release their juices. You may need to add a touch of water at the beginning and use the back of a spoon to help them along. Pour in the maple syrup. Set aside to cool.
  • Spoon some of the blueberry mixture into the bottom of your jar or dish, then add the chia pudding. Top with the remainder of the blueberry compote. Then enjoy!

Notes

  • Stir the chia pudding at least once while it is setting in the fridge to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
  • Allow the compote to cool before adding to your jars or combining with the chia pudding.
  • Adjust the amount of cardamom to taste preference, you may want to only have a half or quarter teaspoon if you just want a hint of spice.
