This recipe focuses on achieving the right consistency for a delicious chia parfait, emphasizing a double liquid to chia ratio. It's a customizable, layered breakfast or snack that can be easily batched for the week.
1. Start with a chia to liquid ratio, doubling the liquid to chia. For example, use 1/4 cup of chia with 1/2 cup of liquid (like unsweetened almond milk).
2. Add chia and your milk of choice to a bowl.
3. Add your desired flavoring, such as cinnamon or vanilla.
4. If you want to sweeten it, add a tablespoon of honey, agave, or maple syrup.
5. Set aside for a few minutes while you prepare your other ingredients.
6. If needed, add a splash more liquid to your chia mixture to achieve a pudding-like consistency.
7. Now you're ready to layer. Start with the chia mixture at the bottom.
8. Layer with fruit, unsweetened shredded coconut, and unsweetened coconut yogurt.
9. Top with homemade granola.
