Ingredients
Chia Mixture
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
- 1-2 tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a glass or mason jar, whisk together chia seeds, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt until evenly mixed.
- Add Liquids and Sweetener: Pour in the milk and add the pure maple syrup, then stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
- Refrigerate: Cover the jar or glass and refrigerate the mixture for a minimum of 4 hours or ideally overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
- Blend the Pudding: Transfer the chilled mixture into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blitz for approximately 60 to 90 seconds until the pudding becomes smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Pour the blended pudding into serving bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings before enjoying this delicious dessert.
Notes
- Use any milk of choice: dairy, almond, oat, soy, or coconut milk work well.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup based on preference.
- For a richer chocolate flavor, consider using Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
- Letting the pudding rest overnight improves texture and flavor.
- Add fresh fruits, nuts, or coconut flakes as toppings for variety.
- This recipe is vegan, gluten-free, and naturally low-calorie.
