🧑🍳 STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
⸻
🔹 Step 1: Make the Chia Pudding Base
1. In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together:
• ½ cup chia seeds
• 2 cups milk of choice
• 2-3 tbsp sweetener (maple syrup, honey, etc.)
• 1½ tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt (optional but recommended)
2. Whisk very well to prevent clumping.
3. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again thoroughly to break up any settling seeds.
4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight until thick and pudding-like.
✅ Tip: For extra smooth texture, blend the chia pudding mixture after it sets using a blender - optional, but turns it into a mousse-like consistency.
⸻
🔹 Step 2: Make the Strawberry Compote
1. In a small saucepan, combine:
• 2 cups chopped strawberries
• 2 tbsp sugar or maple syrup
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until:
• Strawberries break down
• Mixture becomes syrupy and jam-like
• About 10-12 minutes
3. Optional: Use a potato masher or fork to slightly mash berries if you prefer a smoother texture.
4. Remove from heat. Let cool completely, then refrigerate until cold.
🍓 You can also use raw macerated strawberries: toss berries with sugar + lemon and let sit 30 mins to draw out juices, then use as a cold layer.
⸻
🔹 Step 3: Whip the Cream Topping
1. In a chilled mixing bowl, whip:
• ½ cup cold heavy cream
• 1 tbsp powdered sugar or maple syrup
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
2. Beat with hand or stand mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
🥥 For vegan: Scoop chilled coconut cream (only the solid top layer from the can) and whip the same way with sweetener and vanilla.
⸻
🔹 Step 4: Assemble the Layers
1. Spoon or pipe 2-3 tablespoons of strawberry compote into the bottom of each glass or jar.
2. Add chia pudding on top - about ½ to ¾ cup per jar.
3. Top with whipped cream or coconut cream - pipe it on for a pretty finish or spoon it over gently.
4. Garnish with:
• Sliced fresh strawberries
• A sprig of mint
• Drizzle of strawberry syrup or leftover compote
• Crunchy topping like granola or nuts
