Tips

  • The chia pudding needs an overnight rest so the seeds can expand and absorb all that liquid.
  • Chia pudding will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It will thicken the longer it sits, but can be loosened with a splash of milk.
  • To make single-serving puddings, you can divide the chia mixture among smaller containers or glasses.
