How To Make Chia and Flax Seed Pudding
The easiest way to make a high-protein chia and flax seed pudding is using a protein shaker cup and adding your protein powder and dairy-free milk. Shake well! If the shaker cup is small, do 3/4 cup of dairy-free milk and 1 scoop of protein powder for one serving at a time). Shake well to mix. If you don’t have a shaker cup, add dairy-free milk into a jar and whisk in protein powder.
Next, divide the mixture evenly into 2 jars or containers with lids for your puddings to be stored in.
To each jar, add 1.5 tbsp chia seeds, 1 tbsp ground flax seeds, 1 tbsp sweetener of your choice (such as maple syrup or agave nectar) and 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional). Mix until well combined. Add more sweetener if needed.
Top with any fruits of your choice such as berries, bananas or nut butter.
Let the pudding sit in the fridge overnight or for at least a few hours to allow the chia and flax seeds to thicken and create a pudding-like consistency. And voila! Delicious pudding!
