Description
A nourishing and delicious apple chia pudding made with creamy Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and unsweetened apple sauce for a healthy breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ½ cup unsweetened apple sauce
- ½ cup milk (any type)
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or lemon zest)
Instructions
- Whisk the Greek yogurt, unsweetened apple sauce, milk, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth.
- Add the chia seeds and whisk for about 30 seconds to avoid clumping. Let the mixture rest on the counter for 5 minutes, then give it another quick whisk.
- Chill the mixture in chosen serving jars or cover the bowl with plastic wrap, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight, until thickened to a creamy consistency.
- Serve the pudding and top it with fresh diced apples, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, nuts, and any other desired additions. Enjoy cold!
Notes
Allowing the pudding to chill overnight enhances the creaminess. Experiment with different toppings for added flavor.
