Tips for this recipe:
Overnight is best - You don’t have to leave these in the fridge overnight before you can eat them, but it is the best way to have them. Setting these chia seed puddings in the fridge overnight will give them time to really set before you dig in. If you don’t have all night, 4-6 hours should be enough time.
Layer once set - As long as your chia seed puddings have set, you can layer them whenever you want! I like to layer my chia puddings all at the same time so I don’t have to keep so many containers in my fridge, but that’s my personal preference!
2-4 servings - Chia seed puddings can be very filling. This recipe will make anywhere from 2-4 servings depending on the amount you or your kids like to eat.
Almond milk will work too - I prefer to make my chia seed pudding dairy free using coconut milk, but I’ve also had this recipe work with unsweetened almond milk. You can try other dairy free milk options, but I can’t speak to how they will taste or set.
