My 3 Ingredient Oat Milk Chia Pudding could not be simpler. Or more nutritious.
Just a cup of creamy oat milk and a quarter cup of chia seeds equals a good amount of fiber and omega-3s. I often add some form of my favorite sweeteners, like honey, to make it a hint sweeter, but that’s not necessary.
And if you want to use a non-bee sweetener, that’s fine, too!

FAQ
- Can I use a different plant-based milk instead of oat milk?Certainly! For this recipe, you can opt for any kind of milk that comes from a plant source, such as almond, soy, or coconut milk. The choice of milk will definitely influence the flavor and creaminess of whatever you’re making.
- How long should I let the chia pudding sit before it’s ready to eat?Allow the chia pudding to rest for no less than 2 hours, or overnight, in the refrigerator, so the seeds can completely soak up the liquid and thicken.
- Is it possible to adjust the sweetness level?Of course! You can change the sweetener to your taste or use different options, such as agave syrup, stevia, or no sweetener at all, for a more natural flavor.
- Can I add toppings to the chia pudding?Indeed, putting finishes such as new organic fruit, nut, or cereal can take a flavor and mouth-feel to the next level. Feel free to mix it up and try a wild array of combos!
- How long does chia pudding last in the fridge?An airtight container can hold chia pudding in the refrigerator for 5 days, which makes it a fantastic choice for meal prep.
- What is the nutritional benefit of chia seeds?Chia seeds pack a powerful punch. They’re loaded with high-quality nutrients. Here’s what they contain:
1. Fiber. One ounce (28 grams) of chia seeds contains about 11 grams of fiber. And almost all of it (10.9 grams) is soluble fiber or mucilage. It’s what gives chia seeds their extraordinary gel-forming ability. And it’s why, if you eat a lot of chia seeds, you should also be drinking a lot of water. Soluble fiber and mucilage are not what you want to have sitting in your stomach if you’re trying to survive on an arid desert island. - Can I use this recipe to make a larger batch?Of course! Just increase the amounts of the ingredients while keeping the same proportions to create several servings.
3 Ingredient Oat Milk Chia Pudding Ratio Recipe Substitutions and Variations
Oat milk alternatives: almond milk, coconut milk, or soy milk.
Chia seed substitute: flax seeds (when using flax seeds, grind them first for a better, more textured outcome as opposed to a pudding).
Sweetener substitute: agave nectar, stevia, or monk fruit sweetener.
Pro Tips
1. Use Vanilla Extract Enhance the flavor by adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract when mixing the oat milk and chia seeds. It adds a delightful aroma and complements the sweetener.
2. Whisk Thoroughly After adding the chia seeds, whisk the mixture vigorously. This helps prevent clumping, ensuring a smooth and even texture.
3. Consistency Check If you find the pudding is too thick after chilling, you can adjust the consistency by stirring in a little more oat milk before serving.
4. Flavor Infusion Before adding the chia seeds, infuse the oat milk with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth and depth in flavor.
5. Layer with Fruit For a visually appealing and delicious treat, layer the chia pudding with fresh fruits like berries or sliced bananas when serving. This not only adds flavor but also provides a burst of color.
