Who doesn’t love chia pudding?
I’m always stocked up with bags of chia seeds.
I’m often more of a coffee drinker. I never used to like it, but I’ve become so accustomed to grabbing the good ol’ cup of joe in the morning. Long story short, I often buy way too much tea to know what to do with.
After misinterpreting “chia” for “chai,” it dawned on me. You make chia pudding with almond milk (or coconut, or regular). Why not incorporate all of my favorite tea lattes into a bowl of chia goodness!?
So, here we go. It’s super easy!
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp loose leaf chai tea (and a tea steeper) or 1 bagged chai tea
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or coconut, regular, cashew…whatever you prefer)
- 1/2 cup water
- 3 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp cardamom spice
- Toppings: carob powder, pecans, blueberries
Recipe:
- Put your loose leaf tea (with steeper) or your bagged tea into a pot with your liquids.
- Simmer on low for about 10 min. Watch until it boils and becomes a lovely brown color.
- Take off the stove and let it cool.
- Stir in your chia seeds and cardamom spice.
- Put in the fridge to set overnight.
- Add your favorite toppings in the morning.
And feel free to try it with all of your favorite teas! I’m sure it would taste amazing!
