Instructions

Step 1

Mix Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, water, chia seeds, and Jerusalem artichoke syrup.

Ensure everything is well combined, and add a splash of vanilla extract for added flavor. This will create your chia pudding base.

Step 2

Let Seeds Soak

Allow the mixture to sit for 4-6 hours at room temperature so the chia seeds can hydrate.

For best results, I recommend making this pudding in the evening and storing it in the refrigerator overnight.

Step 3

Stir to Prevent Clumping

A helpful tip to avoid clumping is to stir the chia mixture every 10 minutes during the first 30 minutes of soaking.

This will help to keep the seeds evenly distributed throughout the pudding.

Step 4

Serve and Enjoy

In the morning, get creative and top your chia pudding with various fruits, berries, or granola to enhance its flavor and nutrition.

Serve them in beautiful jars and enjoy a deliciously healthy breakfast that can serve 3-4 portions!
