Chia with Maple Syrup Coated Pecans

Chia seeds and oat bran are both low in FODMAPs. This dessert can be sweetened with a little maple syrup or brown sugar and served with fruit and a few crushed pecans to form a gentle sustaining dessert.

 

Serves 2 

Ingredients

·         2 tbsp whole chia seeds

·         1 tbsp extra fine oat bran

·         300ml unsweetened plant milk of your choice i.e. soya, or rice

·         4 pecan nuts

·         1 tsp maple syrup

·         50g raspberries or blueberries to serve

Method   

Place the chia seeds, oat bran and plant milk in a bowl and whisk together. Leave in the fridge for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight. The chia seeds and oat bran will swell and develop a lovely creamy texture.

 

Dry fry the pecan nuts in frying pan. Dribble over maple syrup and allow to cool. Chop and sprinkle the pecan nuts over the chia and oat bran porridge, add a few berries and serve.
