Chia Kulfi pudding is a protein and fiber-packed super-food for either breakfast or dessert. Indeed, it is a great dish to introduce to your kids to have chia seeds. At our home, we love kulfi flavor, so I tried this very simple Chia kulfi pudding, and it was a hit.

A single serving will keep you full for hours plus you can do all the prep work the previous night, and in the morning, top it with pistachios, Cardamom, and saffron, and breakfast is ready. Yes, thats how easy to prepare, so what are you waiting for make it and indulge.

Chia seeds benefits

Chia seeds are nutritionally rich. With omega-3 fatty acids, plant-based calcium, and protein and fiber-rich chia seeds are a nutritions delight. Studies are showing the positive impact of Omega-3 fatty acids on our cardiovascular health, and they are playing an essential role in controlling inflammation. High fiber supports the gastrointestinal tract. While plant protein is an excellent compliment for increasing protein ratios in our daily diet.

How to get Kulfi flavor for chia seeds

Milk, sugar, Cardamom and saffron gives kulfi flavor

Choice of milk

You can use low fat/ whole milk. Whole milk tastes better.

For Vegans and lactose intolerance :

Coconut milk, rice milk or any seed milks like Hemp seed milk or any nut milks like cashew and almond.

Note that depending upon the milk used, the taste varies a bit.

Sweetener of your choice

Organic turbinado/ raw sugar is my choice of sugar in place of regular sugar.

You can try maple syrup, but the taste may vary.

How to Infuse milk with saffron:

In ½ cup of milk, add 5-6 strands of crushed saffron, mix well and leave it for 5 minutes. You will see milk turning yellow. Now use that milk.
