Recipe yields 1 serving; multiply as necessary or see recipe notes for how to make 4 servings all together. INGREDIENTS Per serving 1 cup cashew milk, almond milk or coconut milk ½ teaspoon orange zest, preferably from an organic orange ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract, more to taste 3 tablespoons chia seeds Recommended toppings: drizzle of honey or maple syrup, sliced bananas, fresh or defrosted berries, shredded coconut, toasted chopped nuts… INSTRUCTIONS In a small jar or bowl, combine the milk, orange zest, and vanilla extract. Taste, and if you’d like a more pronounced vanilla flavor, add another ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract. Be sure to measure out the extra vanilla extract rather than just pouring more in—it’s easy to go overboard. Whisk in the chia seeds, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight), until the chia seeds have absorbed enough moisture to achieve a pudding-like state. If you think of it, give it a stir sometime along the way to break up any clumps of chia. Before serving, stir once again to break up any clumps of chia seeds. Serve with any toppings you might like. This pudding will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 5 days. Recipe courtesy of Cookie + Kate https://cookieandkate.com/chia-seed-pudding-recipe/ |
