  • Let sit for 5 minutes, then, stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds, cover and put the mixture in the fridge to “set" for 1-2 hours or overnight. The chia pudding should be nice and thick, not liquidy. If it's not thick enough, continue to let sit until thickened or if you need it sooner, add another tablespoon of chia seeds, stir and refrigerate for another 30 minutes or so.
