Juicy strawberries are the star ingredient in these vibrant chia seed puddings. Orange juice, plant-based milk, and a dash of maple syrup add extra flavor to the jammy berries, ensuring each bite is filled with heavenly flavor. The absorbent chia seeds create a thick, satisfying pudding after sitting in the fruit purée for a few hours, and topping each serving with fresh berries creates a delicious textural contrast. Enjoy a strawberry chia seed pudding for either breakfast or dessert, and feel free to get creative with your toppings as well—bananas, granola, or cacao nibs would all be delicious add-ons!
