Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
- 1 1/2 cups herbal tea or filtered water
- Optional natural sweetener
- Optional lemon juice or berry puree
Instructions
- Pour 1 cup of herbal tea or filtered water into a small saucepan and warm over low heat without boiling.
- Pour 1/2 cup cool liquid into a bowl, sprinkle gelatin evenly on top, and let sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Add the bloomed gelatin into the warm liquid and whisk continuously until fully dissolved and clear.
- Stir in chia seeds and mix thoroughly, stirring again after 10 minutes to prevent clumping.
- Pour mixture into jars or molds and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight until firm.
- Serve chilled as a snack or before dinner to support appetite control.
Notes
Stir the mixture twice before refrigerating to prevent chia clumps. For a creamy variation, replace half the liquid with unsweetened coconut milk. For extra protein, add collagen peptides. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in airtight containers.
