This two ingredient Paleo Chia Seed Pudding makes a great gluten-free, dairy-free, and paleo breakfast! It's also a staple for my family while traveling. This is a nice thick pudding that won't spill during travel.
⅓cupfull fat coconut milk(if solid and separated, warm until liquid and mixed)
3tablespoonschia seeds
Instructions
Prep: Add the water, coconut milk, and chia seeds to a jar. Secure the lid and shake or stir until well mixed. Let rest for a minute, then shake or stir again. Let rest for another minute, then mix one more time to prevent the seeds from clumping.
Rest: Let the chia pudding sit for at least two hours. I usually make this recipe the night before to eat in the morning (or for the next few mornings as breakfast meal prep). I like to top it with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. You can also add a few drops of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt if you like.
Notes
Storage: Store leftover paleo chia seed pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.Thickness: This recipe makes a nice thick pudding. Add a little more liquid to thin. For a thick dessert chia seed pudding, add additional coconut cream (the solid part of a can of full fat coconut milk after cooled to separate it from the liquid).Milk Substitutes: You can replace the ⅔ cup (150 ml) water-coconut milk combination with almond milk, hemp milk, cashew milk, or another plant-based milk. The water and coconut milk combination is my favorite.Variations: For more paleo chia seed pudding flavors, check out my Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding, Mango Coconut Chia Pudding, Pumpkin Chia Pudding, and Mocha Chia Pudding.
