Ingredients
Scale
Chia Pudding Base
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup milk (any kind, dairy or plant-based)
Flavorings and Toppings
- ½ cup fresh raspberries
- 1 teaspoon rose water
- 2 tablespoons shelled pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the pudding base: In a bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds and milk. Stir vigorously to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed in the liquid.
- Add flavorings: Mix in the rose water, stirring again to incorporate the floral essence throughout the pudding.
- Chill: Cover the mixture and place it in the refrigerator to chill overnight or for at least 6 hours. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the milk and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
- Serve: Before serving, gently fold in or top the pudding with fresh raspberries and chopped pistachios for added flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use any type of milk you prefer, such as almond, coconut, or cow’s milk, depending on dietary needs.
- Adjust the amount of rose water carefully; a little goes a long way to avoid overpowering the pudding.
- For added sweetness, consider drizzling honey or maple syrup before chilling.
- Chia pudding can be stored refrigerated for up to 3 days, though fresh toppings are best added just before serving.
- To make it vegan, use plant-based milk alternatives.
