      Am I missing something, or could your proportions be off? For 1/2c. milk, you use 2 tbsp chia. Multiply both sides by 4, to maintain the proportions, and 2c milk should get 8 tbsp chia. That's 1/2 c. of chia. You say you're using 1/4 c.

      Hi there - I believe I did say 1/2 cup of chia seeds in the video when I discuss the batch prepping portion. Can you tell me where it was stated as 1/4 cup of chia?

    I'm a teacher and I have to say that you are an excellent teacher. The way you presented the recipes, from speaking slowly and clearly, to writing out the instructions, and showing everything step by step--those are all the best teacher practices that I have been taught. This was awesome to watch, thank you!

      Wow, thank you so much for the amazingly kind words! This is actually one of the best comments I've received here and it made my day, so I really appreciate it. I always try to present the information in the most accessible way I can to make it easily digestible for anyone - even someone with zero cooking experience. So it's incredibly rewarding to hear those comments coming from a teacher :) Thank you so much!

      I agree as well! Your videos are excellent, Toasty Apron. Perfectly paced, great angles, good non-invasive music and really nice narration. Smooth and friendly.
      I love that your videos show several ways to use an ingredient, such as oat flour or chia seeds.
      You give the base recipe, then repeat it in brief for every iteration. I think this locks the idea in peoples’ minds and encourages not only confidence but also experimentation.
      Plus, you talk about related things, like the tools of cooking, serving and storing.

And because you repeated the base each time I was able to retain it as I can learn well with both visuals and repetition. Thanks so much!

    If you try cutting back on the sweetener little by little, you eventually may not need any more sweetener at all, the fruit will be plenty sweet for you as it is! I went nearly "cold turkey" on sugar for this past month and I have been shocked at how sweet fruit tastes to me now. I can barely stand cakes and cookies anymore; which is insane because I was eating 6 cookies per day for a while lol. And YES I went through intense sugar withdrawals. It took one and a half weeks to overcome.

    • @ezdepaz4363
      @ezdepaz4363 3 місяці тому +1

      Only way is really to do it cold turkey. It will take about 10 days before the sugar urge wear of and you need to know going into it that those days will absolutly suck. But afterwards any fruit you eat will become increadibly tasty and sweet while normal dessert food will feel like to much sugar.

    • @toastyapron
      @toastyapron  Рік тому +16

      I totally agree! They're such a great time saver, and because they're already pre-ripened, they taste great right out of the bag. Frozen peaches and pineapples are two of my other favs as well!

    And if you use a neutral flavor sweetener instead of maple (such as agave) and the add a little real vanilla extract to the base mixture, it taste almost exactly like smooth tapioca pudding. To get an exact match on real tapioca pudding flavor, you would have to used cane sugar. But I think the idea here is to avoid that in the diet.

    My go to are more overnight oats with chia seeds in it. I use a mix of oats, chia seeds, soy vanilla protein powder, soy milk and sweetener. I have sweeteners with different tastes, and I love caramel and maple flavor. I have berries and sometimes passion fruit on top 😋
    I mostly goes for the one over here, but a cafe in my town has layers of raspberries/strawberries purée and mango or passion fruit purée, and one with chocolate pudding and peanut butter on top 😋 I have made with vegan Nutella in or on top too at home. There are so many yummy ways to eat this, and I eat one everyday 🥰😋

    I also experimented with a peanut butter and jelly idea by adding pb2, maple syrup, and homemade oat milk(SO much cheaper homemade) to the base, then blending it extra well(this one will get chunky without the extra five minute blend, no doubt), and layering the pudding with a strawberry preserve.
    It's nostalgic and tasty, and this pregnant lady is now ready to tackle her next few days' worth of cravings!
