a thicker pudding, use slightly less milk. If you prefer a softer consistency, add a little more.
Use Fresh Chia Seeds
Fresh chia seeds generally produce the best texture. Store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
Taste Before Serving
After the pudding has thickened, taste it before adding toppings. You can adjust the sweetness or add another flavor such as vanilla or cinnamon.
Make-Ahead Instructions
Chia seed pudding is excellent for make-ahead preparation.
Prepare several individual servings in small jars or containers. Add the chia seeds,
milk, sweetener, and flavoring to each container. Stir thoroughly and refrigerate.
For the freshest texture, add delicate toppings such as berries shortly before serving.
This can make busy mornings easier because the main preparation is already finished.
How to Store Chia Seed Pudding
Keep prepared chia seed pudding covered in the refrigerator.
It is best enjoyed while fresh, and you should use good food-safety practices when storing homemade foods. If you notice an unusual smell, appearance, or texture, discard it rather than eating it.
