As the cornerstone of a nutritious breakfast, chia puddings are said to possess plenty of nutritional value, without piling on the excessive calories. Make your bowl of basic chia pudding fabulous with these easy and delicious additions that will elevate your breakfast game.
Top your chia pudding with fresh berries, sliced bananas or mango chunks to add natural sweetness and provide a burst of colour.
Create layers in your chia pudding similar to a parfait, by alternating layers of chia pudding with granola for texture, crunch and flavour in your breakfast.
Add a dollop of almond, cashew or butter on top of your chia pudding for extra creaminess and richness as well as make it filling.
Boost the nutritional value of your chia pudding by mixing in superfoods like cacao nibs, pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut or goji berries for a dose of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Instead of using water or whole milk to soak the chia seeds, infuse it with coconut milk, runny Greek yoghurt or even fruit juice to add depth and complexity.
Enhance the flavour of this healthy breakfast by stirring in warm and sweet spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom or vanilla extract.
