Ingredients
- 2 cups Plain unsweetened yogurt
- 3 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Fresh berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)
- 0.5 cup Nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon or less Stevia (optional, to taste)
- 4 leaves Mint leaves, for garnish
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the plain unsweetened yogurt and chia seeds. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Add the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly. This will give a nice subtle flavor to the yogurt without adding any sugar.
Step 3
Taste the yogurt mixture. If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can add a small amount of stevia, mixing until it is completely dissolved. Remember, a little goes a long way.
Step 4
Let the yogurt mixture sit for about 5 minutes to allow the chia seeds to swell and thicken the yogurt slightly.
Step 5
While waiting, wash and prepare the fresh berries. If using strawberries, hull and slice them.
Step 6
Once the chia seeds have thickened the yogurt, divide the mixture evenly among four serving bowls or glasses.
Step 7
Top each bowl with a generous serving of fresh berries and a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
Step 8
Dust lightly with cinnamon for an extra flavor dimension.
Step 9
Garnish each serving with a fresh mint leaf. Serve immediately, and enjoy your nutritious, sugar-free creamy yogurt with added texture and health benefits from the chia seeds.
