Chia Seeds: (¼ cup) – These tiny seeds are nutritional powerhouses, packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and protein. They are the magic ingredient that thickens the pudding and provides a satisfying texture.Flaxseeds (Ground): (2 tablespoons) – Ground flaxseeds are another excellent source of omega-3s, fiber, and lignans, which are antioxidants. Grinding them ensures better absorption of their nutrients.Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy): (1 ½ cups) – Use your milk of choice! Dairy milk adds protein and calcium. Almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, or soy milk are fantastic vegan and dairy-free options, each contributing their unique flavor profile.Sweetener (Optional): (1-2 tablespoons, or to taste) – This is where you can customize the sweetness. Maple syrup, honey, agave nectar, stevia, or even dates (blended in) work beautifully. Adjust the amount to your preference, or skip it entirely for a less sweet version.Vanilla Extract: (½ teaspoon) – A touch of vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor and adds a warm, comforting note.Pinch of Salt: (Optional) – A tiny pinch of salt helps to balance the sweetness and bring out the other flavors.

Step 1

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl or jar, add the chia seeds and ground flaxseeds.

Step 2

Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk of your choice, vanilla extract, and sweetener (if using). Add a pinch of salt if desired.

Step 3

Stir Well: Whisk or stir all the ingredients together thoroughly. Ensure there are no clumps of chia seeds or flaxseeds. This is crucial for achieving a smooth pudding texture.

Step 4

Chill Time: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds and flaxseeds to absorb the liquid and create the pudding consistency.

Step 5

Stir Again (Optional): After chilling, you might notice some settling. Give the pudding another good stir to ensure everything is well combined and the texture is even.

Step 6

Customize and Serve: Now for the fun part! Portion the pudding into bowls or jars and add your favorite toppings. Get creative and enjoy!
