Xmas is in the air !!
I live in a tropical country, but I can feel winter is around the corner, the urge for cozy moments by the fireplace and Christmas cookies cooking session with the kids !
So why not a Christmassy chia pudding for breakfast ?
This super easy recipe below reminds me of gingerbread each time I eat it… so good and comforting.
Try it and let me know what nice Xmas souvenirs it triggers 🙂 !
Recipe (serves 2)
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/3 cup water (or plant yogurt for a super creamy version)
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
- 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup (I put one only, but don’t have a sweet tooth 🙂 and I added dried figs as toppings )
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.15 tsp nutmeg
- 0.15 tsp ground ginger
- 0.15 tsp ground cloves
+ Dairy-free yogurt, walnuts, dry figs, granola, crumbled gingerbread cookies… for topping
Directions
- Combine milks, water and maple syrup . Add the spices and chia seeds to the bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Whisk again after a few min to ensure that the chia seeds don’t clump together.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (usually I prepare it overnight)
- Serve with a dollop of yogurt and other toppings you like and associate with gingerbread 🙂
