Chia Pudding Recipe Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this easy chia pudding recipe:
- Chia seeds, of course! I used white chia seeds on the day I took these photos, but black chia seeds will work here too.
- Almond milk – Or any milk you like! If I don’t have almond milk on hand, I often make this recipe with other non-dairy milks. Light coconut milk and oat milk are both great. Regular milk also works.
- Maple syrup – I mix some into the chia seed pudding to sweeten it naturally. When I eat, I drizzle more maple syrup on top!
- And cinnamon – For warm depth of flavor.
Optional, but delicious: Add a pinch of salt to make all the flavors pop!
