I was at a nice cafe a few weeks ago, and I saw chia pudding, for $4. I read the ingredients, and, considering there were only a handful, it got me thinking, how hard can this possibly be to make at home? The answer is… super super easy. Chia pudding is basically the easiest thing to make. The best thing about it is that chia is really healthy, and there isn’t any added sugar. All of the sweetness is derived from the banana.
I’ve tried this recipe with a bunch of substitutions – adding different fruits, adding unsweetened cocoa to make it “chocolate pudding”, and various types of milk. The recipe holds pretty well.
As for the recipe below, Lucas scarfed this down (all three times we served it), and demanded more. And, I can’t stress this enough: it is the easiest to make.
