Chia Seed Porridge

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups unsweetened almond milk

  • ¼ cup chia seeds

  • Agave or maple syrup to taste

  • Soya yoghurt (optional)

Topping suggestions

  • Granola (vegan, honey-free)

  • Fresh fruit

  • Dried fruit, eg raisins, chopped figs, unsulphured apricots

  • Coconut flakes

  • Goji berries

  • Cinnamon or cardamon

  • Nuts and seeds

  • Cacao nibs

  • Vegan yoghurt

Method

  1. Whisk the almond milk, chia seeds, and sweetener together in a large bowl. Let sit for 5-10 minutes and then whisk again.

  2. Cover and chill in the fridge for 2+ hours or overnight. If you are able to stir now and again, even better. If you don’t like the texture, blend it until smooth. (Our picture shows whole chia.)

  3. Stir well before serving. Serve into bowls and add toppings of your choice.

  4. Serve into bowl(s) and add your toppings. Leftovers will keep in an air-tight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.
