Keto Overnight Chia
Following a keto/low carb diet the typical or go-to breakfast is EGGS. There’s no more pastries, no more bagels, no more vanilla frappuccinos. Sometimes people get sick of eggs.
One of the most common requests I get when following a keto style diet is for other morning meal options.
This recipe for Keto Overnight Chia is the answer to that request.
Mason Jar
While not totally necessary to have a specific mason jar, you must have a screw top or tight fitting lid on a jar of some sort. Amazon has a variety of canning jars with metal screw top lids. I went the extra step and got plastic one piece lids.
Chia Seeds
Whole chia seeds for Keto Overnight Chia can be any variation. Chia seeds come in black, brown or white. Chia seeds come in either whole or ground. For this recipe you will use whole chia.
Other Ingredients
The rest of the ingredients are fairly simple. Pour unsweetened almond milk (or unsweetened coconut milk for nut free) into the mason jar.
You will add chia seeds, shredded coconut, stevia drops and a vanilla extract to the jar.
Shake and Chill
Screw the lid on tight and shake away for a good 10-15 seconds. Place the Keto Overnight Chia in the fridge and let sit overnight.
In the morning remove your mason jar from the fridge and give another shake.
At this point you can take the lid off and heat the jar or pack up your “On-The-Go” meal for the road.
Serve with toppings
This recipe shows strawberries, toasted almonds and more shredded coconut. Add whatever low carb variations you like.
Variations
There are so many variations on Keto Overnight Chia. All can be mixed up by changing the extract to banana or coffee or pineapple. Then just switch up the toppings for endless choices.
- Strawberry Banana
- Chocolate Banana
- Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana
- Mocha
- Pumpkin Spice
- Vanilla Peanut Butter
- Cinnamon Vanilla
- Pineapple Coconut
