Banana Chia Seed Pudding
I love making this Banana Chia Seed Pudding for breakfast, leaving it overnight in the refrigerator, all ready to dig into in the morning. It’s also a great late night snack, or whenever you want a healthy bite!
Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Mash up the bananas until they're a gooey, sloppy mess! It's important to get to this stage because it means you've broken the starch in the banana and released the sugar. MmmMMmm! I like to break the banana into chunks to make the mashing easier. Place the mashed banana into a jar (glass jar preferable, but if you have plastic, that's fine. Just make sure it's a wide mouth so you can clean it later!)
- Step 2
Add 1/2 cup chia seeds. Yup, that's right, straight onto the bananas. What, you thought this was complicated or something?
- Step 3
Add 2 cups of milk.
- Step 4
MIX AGGRESSIVELY! Take out your anger on that pudding! Seriously though, in order to release the gelatinous chemistry of the chia seed, you need to rough it up. Mix for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Step 5
Put lid on jar, place in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Remove, and aggressively mix once again.
- Step 6
Place in refrigerator for minimum of 6 hours and enjoy!
- Step 7
Add sweetener as desired.
