Description

A bright, cozy, creamy Lemon Cream Chia Pudding made with simple pantry staples. This chilled treat combines fresh lemon flavor with a smooth, silky chia texture. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or an easy dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 cup whole milk or oat milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest

  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
