Description

A creamy, chocolatey pudding that is high in protein and packed with nutrients, perfect for a healthy dessert or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine chia seeds, almond milk, cocoa powder, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. Whisk until everything is well mixed.
  2. Allow the mixture to sit for about 5-10 minutes to let the chia seeds absorb the liquid and swell up.
  3. Stir the mixture again to break up any clumps until you achieve a smooth consistency.
  4. Transfer the pudding to individual serving cups or bowls, cover, and let them chill in the fridge for at least an hour, or overnight.
  5. Once chilled, add toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, or yogurt. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Adjust sweetener according to taste. This pudding can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for 3-5 days.
