Ingredients

Fruit

  • 1 pound strawberries (fresh or frozen, plus more for serving)

Liquid & Sweetener

  • 2 cups milk
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Seeds

  • ½ cup chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Blend Strawberries and Liquids: Combine the strawberries, milk, honey, and vanilla extract in a high-speed blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and has the consistency of a thick smoothie, ensuring the strawberries are fully pureed.
  2. Add Chia Seeds: Pour the blended mixture into a large bowl. Stir in the chia seeds thoroughly. Let the mixture settle for 2-3 minutes, then stir again very well to prevent clumping and ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and floating.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
  4. Serve: Divide the pudding into four servings. Top each serving with additional fresh strawberries if desired for extra texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen strawberries; if frozen, thaw slightly before blending.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond, soy, or coconut milk.
  • Adjust honey quantity to taste for sweetness preference.
  • Stir the pudding once or twice during refrigeration if possible to prevent clumps.
  • Store leftover pudding covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
