how to make Keto Ginger Chia Pudding

You warm the milk with ginger to pull out the taste. You mix in the chia so the seeds swell and make a soft gel. You chill it so the pudding sets. For a warm spice mix idea, try a bread pudding note like pumpkin bread pudding.

3 tablespoons chia seeds
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

Optional toppings: extra ginger, crushed nuts, coconut flakes
You can also pair it with fruit ideas like strawberry banana pudding dream for berry notes.

Warm the almond milk in a small pot. Do not boil. Just warm enough to pull the flavour from the ginger.

Remove from heat and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Add chia seeds and a small pinch of salt. Stir very well so seeds don’t clump.
Pour into a jar or bowl. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Stir again before serving. Add toppings if you like. Enjoy cold.
