Basil Seed Pudding Recipe
This creamy vanilla-cinnamon pudding makes the perfect breakfast! Basil seeds are very similar to chia seeds, but even more full of nutrients. This pudding is SO simple to make and perfect for breakfast meal prep.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons basil seeds
- 3/4 cup lukewarm water
- 3/4 - 1 cup coconut milk can sub milk of choice such as dairy milk, oat milk, almond milk, etc.
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup*
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the basil seeds and lukewarm water. Let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes until the seeds have soaked up the water. The mix will be thick and gelatinous.
- Whisk in 3/4 cup coconut milk, pure maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, and pinch salt. If you're happy with the thickness, you're done. For a slightly thinner pudding, add the remaining coconut milk.
- Can eat immediately or place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
