Banana Chia Pudding
The Banana Chia Pudding is a refreshing and nutritious summertime delight. Made with creamy vanilla-flavored flax milk, ripe banana chunks, and nutrient-rich chia seeds, this pudding offers a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The addition of honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt enhances the overall taste profile. After a quick blend and mix, the pudding is left to set in the refrigerator, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a luscious, pudding-like consistency. Served chilled and garnished with banana slices or a drizzle of honey, this Banana Chia Pudding is a healthy and satisfying treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, as a light snack, or even as a guilt-free dessert during the summer months.
Equipment
- blender
- Medium-sized bowl
- Spoon or Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Cover or plastic wrap
- refrigerator
- Serving bowls or glasses
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups vanilla-flavored flax milk
- 1 large banana, cut into chunks
- 7 tbsp chia seeds
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅛ tsp sea salt
Notes
- In a blender, combine the vanilla-flavored flax milk and the chunks of banana. Blend until smooth and well combined.
- In a medium-sized bowl, pour the banana and flax milk mixture. Add the chia seeds, honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir well to ensure all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Let the mixture sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes. Stir again to distribute the chia seeds evenly.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
- Once chilled and set, give the pudding a final stir. If the consistency is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more flax milk to achieve the desired texture.
- Serve the banana chia pudding in individual bowls or glasses. You can garnish it with additional slices of banana, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of chia seeds for added presentation.
