Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana thoroughly with a fork until it becomes a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Add the chia seeds to the mashed banana and stir to combine, ensuring the seeds are evenly distributed throughout the banana mixture.
- Pour the almond milk into the bowl, then add the vanilla extract. Whisk all ingredients together until they are well incorporated and create a smooth liquid.
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, making sure it is sealed tightly to prevent any moisture from escaping.
- Place the covered bowl in the refrigerator and allow the mixture to sit overnight or for at least 4-6 hours. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like texture.
- Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to ensure the consistency is even and smooth.
- Optional: Top with additional sliced bananas, a sprinkle of cinnamon, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and texture.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your nutritious and delicious Overnight Banana Chia Seed Pudding.
Tips
- Choose a ripe banana for maximum natural sweetness and easier mashing.
- Whisk ingredients thoroughly to prevent chia seed clumping.
- Use a clear container to watch the magical transformation of chia seeds overnight.
- For extra creaminess, use full-fat almond milk or substitute with coconut milk.
- Experiment with toppings like fresh berries, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
- Make sure to refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours to achieve the perfect pudding consistency.
- If the pudding is too thick, add a splash of almond milk to thin it out.
- Prepare multiple servings in advance for quick grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
