The key thing is getting the right ratio of chia seeds to liquid. We\u2019ve suggested 2 level tablespoons of chia&nbsp;seeds (a fibre-packed Healthy Extra portion on the Slimming World plan) per 200ml of the milk of your choice. However, you may prefer a thicker or looser pudding and can adjust the measurements to suit your taste.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As chia seeds expand and soften in liquid, it\u2019s also important to leave them to \u2018soak\u2019 for long enough before eating. Popping your puddings in the fridge overnight will transform the seeds from hard and gritty to soft and jelly-like, giving you a thick, creamy consistency that feels like a dessert.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chia seed pudding recipe video<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/players.brightcove.net\/5245389806001\/default_default\/index.html?videoId=6382725043112\n\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" width=\"900\" height=\"390\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Chia seed pudding recipe<\/strong>s&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingworld.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Body-ChiaSeedsPudding1_SlimmingWorldBlog.jpg\" alt=\"Chia seeds pudding\" class=\"wp-image-14228\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Berry bliss <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>makes 1 pudding<br>5 Swips (or \u00bd Swip if using Healthy Extras)\u00a0<br>vegan<br>10 mins (plus at least four hours in the fridge)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you need:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2 level tbsp chia seeds&nbsp;<br>200ml unsweetened almond milk &nbsp;<br>1 level tsp maple syrup&nbsp;<br>splash of vanilla extract&nbsp;<br>a little cinnamon&nbsp;<br>top with strawberries, raspberries and blueberries (or your berry combination of choice)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you do:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix ingredients together in a jar (toppings aside) and leave in the fridge for at least four hours (ideally overnight). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choc banana&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>makes 1 pudding<br>6 Swips (or 1\u00bd Swips if using Healthy Extras)\u00a0\u00a0<br>vegan<br>10 mins (plus at least four hours in the fridge)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you need:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2 level tbsp chia seeds&nbsp;<br>200ml unsweetened almond milk &nbsp;<br>1 level tsp maple syrup&nbsp;<br>1 level tsp cocoa powder&nbsp;<br>top with sliced banana&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What you do:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix ingredients together in a jar (toppings aside) and leave in the fridge for at least four hours (ideally overnight).
