Pour this peach milk into an airtight container/jar and stir in the chia seeds. Cover with a lid and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.

Notes

*NOTE: The protein powder that I recommend is this one from Wellious - it's made with simple ingredients and doesn't have a chalky texture. It's also sweetened naturally with monkfruit. You can omit the protein powder entirely, however the texture of the chia pudding will be slightly thinner.

**NOTE: To make an easy peach compote, just peel and cube a few peaches, then add them to a pot along with granulated/cane sugar, a splash of lemon/lime juice and a bit of cornstarch to thicken it up. Bring it to medium heat, stir, and let cook for about 5 minutes. Then, reduce heat to medium low until the peaches are nice and soft and the compote has thickened. Finally, stir in a bit of vanilla extract and let it cool down. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
