These sweet, slightly spicy apple-cinnamon version of chia seed pudding is no exception. It’s the perfect vegan breakfast for cold mornings, or eat it as a healthy dessert. Use your favorite non-dairy milk—coconut, cashew, almond, soy, whatever you like—and feel free to switch up the fruit and spice. For example, try fresh peaches and cardamom, or plums and nutmeg.




Ingredients
  • 2 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅔ cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 2 apple, cored and chopped
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions
  1. For warm chia seed pudding, place milk and vanilla extract into a saucepan, and warm over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. The milk does not have to be boiling hot, just warm enough for your taste. Add chia seeds to a cereal bowl.
  2. When the milk is warm, add the milk to bowl of chia seeds.
  3. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes while the chia seeds absorb the milk. Allow the mixture to sit for 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Top with coconut flakes, apple slices, and cinnamon.
  5. Note: If you do NOT want warm chia seed pudding, simply add the milk to bowl of chia seeds. Stir until the chia seeds have absorbed the milk (about 3 to 5 minutes). Then top with coconut flakes, apples, and cinnamon.
