what type of yogurt is best to make yogurt chia seed pudding?
Any creamy yogurt is great to make yogurt chia seed pudding. I perfer honey sweetened vanilla flavored yogurt to make this chia seed pudding, as that gives the best flavors. If you like to use Greek yogurt, that's the best options since that's even more cremier in texture and more protein rich. I used homemade honey sweetened vanilla greek yogurt which is perfect in this recipe, but you can also use plain whole milk yogurt (use whole milk yogurt for the best results, but if you are trying to be more cautious about the fat content you may use low fat yogurt as well) which can be sweetened with honey and flavor with vanilla extract! More easy, delicious recipes using yogurt includes greek yogurt substitute for sour cream (recipe), strawberry yogurt, fluffy yogurt vanilla cake, greek yogurt pancakes etc!
