Description
Healthy Strawberry Chia Pudding Jars are a nutritious and delicious treat packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein from chia seeds, combined with the sweetness and vitamins of strawberries.
Ingredients
- Chia seeds – 1/2 cup
- Almond milk – 2 cups (unsweetened)
- Fresh strawberries – 2 cups, hulled and sliced
- Honey – 2 tablespoons (or to taste)
- Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk well and let sit for 10 minutes, then whisk again to break up clumps. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- In a separate bowl, add sliced strawberries and drizzle with honey. Toss gently and let sit for 10-15 minutes to release juices.
- Layer the jars starting with chia pudding, filling about one-third full.
- Add a layer of macerated strawberries over the chia pudding.
- Continue layering with more chia pudding and strawberries until jars are filled, leaving some space at the top.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Notes
- For a vegan option, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Use coconut milk or oat milk instead of almond milk for different flavors.
- Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
