How to Make Chia Pudding

Chia pudding seems complex, but it’s really pretty easy. And it’s a really great way to meal prep, too! Here are the simple steps I follow.

  1. Add everything except the chia seeds and toppings to a mason jar. Cover and shake.
  2. Add chia seeds, cover and shake again.
  3. Let sit for several minutes as the chia seeds begin to absorb the liquid.
  4. Shake again, let sit, shake again, let sit.
  5. Give it one final shake and transfer to the fridge to set.
  6. It will take about 30 minutes for the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid. And even better if you have time to let the pudding sit overnight.
  7. When you’re ready to eat, add your favorite toppings!

Troubleshooting Chia Pudding Texture Issues

Here are tips for what to do when your chia pudding is too thick or too runny.

Too Thick

  • Stir in more almond milk, starting with a couple tablespoons until it reaches your desired consistency

Too Runny

  • Add more chia seeds and let them absorb the excess liquid, starting with just a teaspoon until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Just note that you’ll need to give the chia seeds time to absorb the liquid and set.

There are some factors that can affect the consistency of your chia pudding – like how fresh your seeds are. If they’re old or stale, they won’t absorb as much liquid. Or maybe you live at a higher altitude or have low or high humidity. Just use the tips above to correct.
