Full of flavour and packed with protein and fibre, you’ll definitely want to try these spiced chia puddings for a nourishing and filling breakfast. Topped with a sticky apple and pecan compote, you’ll want to have this recipe on repeat when the weather turns cold.
Ingredients
Pudding ingredients:
- ¾ cup chia seeds (120g)
- 3 cups organic soy milk (750ml)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1½ tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- Grind of black pepper
Toppings:
- ½ cup organic soy yoghurt (125g)
- 2 apples
- 2 tsp coconut oil
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ cup pecans (15g)
Instructions
- To make the pudding, add the chia seeds, milk, spices and 2 tbsp of maple syrup to a large bowl. Mix well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, peel and chop the apples. Add the coconut oil to a frying pan. Add the apples and fry for a couple of minutes until soft. Add the maple syrup, cinnamon and pecans and cook for another minute or two until sticky.
- Divide the chia into 4 serving dishes and top with yoghurt and the apple mixture.
Notes
- The nutritional information is based upon organic unsweetened soya milk and unsweetened soya yoghurt.
- I like to prepare the chia in advance and serve with the apples warm. You can also prep the whole thing and leave in the fridge overnight, if easier. The apples and pecans will be cold, but they still taste amazing.
- The puddings look a bit green in the photo; it’s just the combination of the spices, don’t worry. Depending which turmeric you use, yours could turn out more yellow.
