Why You Will Love This Chia Pudding Recipe
This chia pudding recipe is one of my favourites and for so many reasons! It is so simple to make - pretty much foolproof in fact! This recipe is a delicious combination of textures and flavours. It is perfect as a yummy breakfast, snack, or dessert.
This recipe uses delicious dried fruit so it can be made at any time of the year - how great is that! I am a massive fan of dried fruit so I was very excited to make this recipe in partnership with Dried Fruit South Africa. Using dried fruit in recipes is an easy way to add delicious flavour and nutrients. I've loved playing with dried fruit in recipes in a different way. I've been incorporating it into more modern recipes (hello, chia pudding) and it's been an absolute game changer. I've thinking overnight oats with dried apple next!
How To Make Peach & Apricot Chia Pudding
This easy and yummy recipe has simple layers of granola, chia pudding, dried fruit compote, and yoghurt.
To make the chia pudding mixture, combine the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Once well combined, cover with cling wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
To make the peach and apricot compote, place all the ingredients in a small saucepan. Stir and simmer for 10 - 15 minutes. The longer the mixture is cooked the thicker it will become, so cook until your preferred consistency is reached.
Once all the chia pudding elements are ready, assemble the chia puddings by layering the granola, chia mixture, dried fruit compote, and yoghurt in serving glasses, and then enjoy!
