Ingredients
- 3 figs
- 1 cup oat milk
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp black sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp pistachios
- Optional toppings: Maple syrup, coconut crème, or yogurt.
How to Make Chia Pudding with Figs
- Mix chia seeds, oat milk, and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir well, let it sit for a few minutes, then stir again to prevent clumps. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best!).
- Cut the figs in half and place them at the bottom of a jar or press them against the sides. Pour the thickened chia pudding into the jar.
- Top with black sesame seeds, chopped pistachios, and optional extras like maple syrup, coconut crème, or yogurt. Enjoy immediately or store in the fridge!
Tips for the Best Chia Pudding
- Use the right ratio: 2 tbsp of chia seeds to 1 cup of milk for the perfect texture.
- Stir well before refrigerating: This keeps the seeds from clumping together.
- Let it sit long enough: At least 2 hours, but overnight is even better.
- Use fresh, ripe figs: They’re naturally sweet and full of flavor.
- Layer with yogurt: For extra creaminess and a parfait-like experience.
- Serve it as a breakfast bowl: Top with extra nuts, fruits, or granola.
- Make a chocolate version: Add a spoonful of cocoa powder for a twist.
Storage & Meal Prep Tips
- Fridge: Keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Meal prep-friendly: Make several jars at once for a grab-and-go breakfast.
- Freezer option: Freeze for up to a month, then thaw overnight in the fridge.
