Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 300 grams unsweetened Greek-style yogurt Use a high-quality brand for a rich and creamy texture.
  • 200 ml non-dairy milk or dairy milk Feel free to swap with almond, oat, or coconut milk.
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup Optional, add to taste.
  • 1 pinch zest of a lemon Brightens up the flavor profile.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances the richness of the yogurt.
  • 65 grams chia seeds These little seeds help thicken the pudding.
  • 1 tiny pinch sea salt Balances the flavors.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, non-dairy milk or dairy milk, honey or maple syrup (if using), lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
  2. Add chia seeds and a tiny pinch of sea salt to the mixture. Whisk again to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed.
  3. Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate for at least one hour, or ideally overnight, to allow the chia seeds to swell.
  4. Once chilled and thickened, serve the pudding in bowls or jars and add your favorite toppings.

Notes

Store the pudding in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. Perfect for meal prepping! Don’t skip the chill time for best results.
