Ingredients
1 ripe Banana, mashed
1 cup Milk (any milk you prefer)
6 teaspoons Chia seeds
2 teaspoons local Honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon (ground)
Instruction
- Peel the banana and mash it in a bowl until smooth.
- Add the milk and mix well with the mashed banana.
- Stir in the chia seeds.
- Add honey, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
- Mix everything thoroughly so the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Pour the mixture into a jar or bowl.
Method
Cover the jar or bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 4 hours, or overnight. During this time, the chia seeds absorb the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like texture. Stir once after about 30 minutes if possible to prevent the seeds from clumping. Serve chilled and optionally top with banana slices or extra honey.
