Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl large
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 refrigerator

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh peaches peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Toppings

  • Fresh berries
  • Chopped nuts
  • Mint leaves

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, lemon juice and zest, and honey. Whisk thoroughly until the honey is completely dissolved.
  • Stir the chia seeds into the liquid mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
  • Gently fold in the diced peaches into the chia mixture, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
  • Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.

Serving

  • Once the pudding has reached the desired consistency, give it a good stir. Serve in individual bowls or jars, topping with optional fresh berries, nuts, or mint leaves.

Storage

  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Stir well before serving again.

Make-Ahead Tips

  • This pudding can be prepared the night before for a quick breakfast or brunch option. Simply mix the ingredients and refrigerate overnight.

Storage & Freshness: Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Stir before serving.
