What to keep in mind.
5 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1For a thicker, pudding-like texture, stir the chia seeds into the yogurt and let it sit in the fridge for 15-20 minutes before adding berries.
- 2Using frozen berries will chill the yogurt and create a refreshing, almost slushy texture, perfect for warm days.
- 3Feel free to swap the berries with other low-sugar fruits like sliced peaches, kiwi, or a few orange segments.
- 4Always double-check that your almond yogurt is unsweetened to keep the recipe free from added sugars.
- 5For a touch of sweetness without sugar, add a drop of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon.
