Piatto per la colazione con frutti di bosco e chia, fresco, semplice e saziante

Ingredienti

• 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries; fresh or thawed)
• 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• Pinch of cinnamon or lemon zest (optional)
• 2 tablespoons granola, toasted oats, or chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pistachios)
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
• Pinch of flaky sea salt (optional, for balance)

Preparazione

1. 1

   In a bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, chia seeds, vanilla, and a tiny pinch of cinnamon or lemon zest if using.

2. 2

   Sweeten to taste with honey or maple syrup. Mix well so the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

3. 3

   Let the mixture sit 5–10 minutes so the chia starts to swell. For a thicker, pudding-like texture, refrigerate 1–8 hours.

4. 4

   Arrange your berries on top. If using strawberries, slice them; if using frozen berries, thaw and drain extra liquid.

5. 5

   Add crunchy toppings: granola or nuts, plus coconut if you like. A small pinch of flaky salt can make the flavors pop.

6. 6

   Serve right away, or chill and enjoy later. If chilling longer than an hour, add crunchy toppings just before eating so they stay crisp.
