Instructions

1
Prepare the chia pudding: In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the chia seeds, milk, 2 tbsp maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until thickened and gel-like.

Make the strawberry rhubarb compote: In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, chopped rhubarb, 2 tbsp water, and 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey). Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
3
Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is tender and the fruit has broken down into a saucy consistency. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
4
Once both the chia pudding and compote are chilled, assemble the parfaits. In individual serving glasses or jars, spoon a layer of chia pudding.
5
Top the pudding layer with a generous amount of the cooled strawberry rhubarb compote. Repeat layers if desired.

Before serving, sprinkle with your favorite granola for added crunch. Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the chia pudding last in the fridge?

The chia pudding, without the compote and granola, can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The compote can also be stored separately for up to a week.

Can I use frozen strawberries and rhubarb?

Yes, absolutely! Frozen fruit works perfectly for the compote. You might need to cook it a few minutes longer to reduce any excess liquid.

What kind of milk is best for chia pudding?

Any milk will work! Almond milk, oat milk, soy milk, or dairy milk are all great options. Choose your favorite based on taste and dietary preferences.
