Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 medium apple
- 4 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened soy milk
- ¼ cup rolled oats
Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds
- ½ teaspoon coconut oil
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Whisk 4 tablespoons chia seeds, 1 cup soy milk, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract in a medium jar until smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes, stir again to prevent clumping, then refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
- Heat ½ teaspoon coconut oil in a small skillet over medium heat (350°F). Add 1 diced medium apple, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon maple syrup. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples become tender and caramelized.
- Sprinkle ¼ cup rolled oats and 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds into the apple pan. Toast for 2-3 minutes, ensuring your oats absorb the cinnamon flavors and develop a gentle crunch.
- Transfer chilled chia pudding into a serving bowl. Spread the warm apple crumble mixture directly on top. Serve immediately or refrigerate for a cool breakfast treat.
Notes
- Soak chia seeds overnight to ensure they absorb liquid and create a creamy, pudding-like texture.
- Choose ripe, sweet apples for the best natural flavor and caramelization when cooking.
- Toast oats and nuts briefly before adding to the crumble topping to enhance their nutty, rich taste.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular oats with certified gluten-free oats and use almond flour instead of wheat flour in the crumble.
