Warm Chia & Oat Pudding with Stewed Pear
A warm and creamy chia-oat pudding topped with softly stewed pear and cinnamon.
Chia seeds and oats provide a mixture of soluble and insoluble fibre, while pear contributes additional fibre and natural sweetness. Gently cooking the fruit creates a soft, comforting texture for colder mornings.
