Notes

Allowing the flaxseed pudding to rest is necessary for it to form a pudding-like consistency.
Do not use whole flaxseeds for this recipe.
You can purchase ground flaxseeds or grind your own.
Use any kind of milk. I use skim or 2% milk.
Using a milk alternative will change the flavor and possibly the consistency of this flaxseed pudding.
If your child has a peanut allergy, simply leave it out.
