This butterscotch chia pudding is one of my favorite desserts to whip up when I want something indulgent yet surprisingly nutritious. Chia seeds pack incredible fiber and omega 3 fatty acids that keep you satisfied, making this treat feel a bit less guilty. What I love most is how simple it is to make in under an hour, and you probably have most of these ingredients already in your pantry. The combination of butterscotch syrup and maple syrup creates this wonderfully deep, caramel like flavor that tastes fancy but comes together with minimal effort. It's creamy, it's quick, and it's absolutely delicious.
