What are chia seeds?

Chia seeds are edible seeds that come from the Salvia hispanica plant that grows in central America.

The seeds are tiny but if you look very closely you'll see that they are oval shaped. They're grey in colour with black and white bits.

Chia seeds are absolutely packed full of nutrients - you can read more about the benefits of eating chia seeds on the BBC Good Food site.

Why are chia seeds so popular with vegans?

One reason is the many nutrients that I mentioned above. They're packed full of fibre, omega-3 and protein amongst other things.

However, they have another invaluable use for vegans which is that when ground down and mixed with water they make an excellent egg substitute.

To make a chia egg you need to grind your chia seeds into a powder and then mix 1 tbsp of them with 3 tbsp water.

Read more about how to make a chia egg on the Minimalist Baker site.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 200 ml coconut milk well mixed
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 2 handfuls raspberries
  • fresh mint leaves to serve, optional
  • extra milk for serving, optional

Instructions
 

  • Place 2 tablespoons chia seeds into a small bowl. Stir through 200ml coconut milk - you want it to be very liquid so if the coconut cream has separated from the water give it a good stir before adding to the chia seeds.
  • Add 1 teaspoon maple syrup and a handful of raspberries.
  • Stir really well then leave to rest for five minutes. Stir again - this will help avoid it going lumpy.
  • Transfer to two small bowls or glasses and leave in the fridge overnight or for at least six hours.
  • When you're ready to eat it you may wish to stir through a little extra milk as it will have become thickened overnight.
  • Serve with extra raspberries and fresh mint leaves.

    The flavor on this was good, but I needed to more than double the amount of chia seeds to get the pudding thicken up.

      Can I just ask whether you used coconut milk from a tin or from a carton?
