No-Cook Strawberry-Chia Seed FoolNo-Cook Strawberry-Chia Seed Fool — a 45-minute dessert recipe with 6 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

355 ml heavy whipping cream

1 ½ oranges

1 ½ (454 g) pkgs strawberries

chia seeds

granulated sugar

vanilla extract

Instructions

Place a medium bowl (preferably metal) in the freezer to chill. (If space is limited, place in the refrigerator.)

Meanwhile, wash, dry, and trim strawberries. Medium dice ⅓ of the berries and place in small bowl or container; cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate until ready to serve. Transfer remaining berries to a blender.

Wash, dry, and juice oranges into the blender.

Add sugar and vanilla; blend on high speed for several minutes until smooth.

Pour the strawberry pureé into a medium bowl, add chia seeds, and whisk to combine. Let the mixture rest, whisking occasionally, until seeds start to swell, about 15 minutes.

Once the seeds are slightly swollen, remove bowl from the freezer. Pour cold cream into the bowl.

Use a whisk (or hand blender) to beat the cream vigorously, until medium-soft peaks form, about 4 minutes if whisking. (When you pull the whisk out of the bowl, the cream should hold its shape, with a peak that curls over slightly.)

Whisk the strawberry mixture once more to separate any seeds that are clumped together. Transfer half the mixture to the bowl with the whipped cream. Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the two together until almost combined. Add remaining mixture and continue to fold until just combined.

Divide the strawberry fool between small bowls, cups, or jars. Cover with plastic wrap or lids and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours (or overnight).

To serve, garnish strawberry fool with reserved berries and enjoy!
