Ingredients
- 35 g chia seeds
- 40 g fine rolled oats
- 280 ml oat drink or lactose-free milk
- 1 ripe ripe pear, peeled
- 1 pinch vanilla
Method
- Mix the chia seeds, oats and milk or oat drink thoroughly.
- Chill for at least two hours or overnight, stirring again after ten minutes.
- Peel and dice the pear, then cook gently with a little water for eight minutes.
- Bring the pudding closer to room temperature and serve with the warm pear.
Why this recipe is gentle
Pear is one of the lower-acid fruits and turns even softer with a few minutes of cooking, so there is no citrus or raw acidity here. Oats and chia add soluble fiber without added fat or spice.

Tips
- Chia swells a lot, so eat slowly and keep the portion modest.
- Peel the pear and cook it briefly rather than serving it raw.
- Let the pudding come closer to room temperature instead of eating it fridge-cold.
