Description
Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding is a delightful and nutritious treat that combines the rich flavor of chocolate with the health benefits of chia seeds. This creamy and indulgent dessert is made by mixing chia seeds with cocoa powder, milk, and a sweetener of choice, then letting it sit overnight to thicken into a pudding-like consistency. The result is a satisfying and guilt-free dessert that is not only delicious but also packed with fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, making it a perfect choice for a wholesome and decadent treat.
Ingredients
1/4 cup of Cocoa Powder
2 TBSP of Maple Syrup
1/2 TSP of Vanilla Extract
1 cup of Coconut Milk
1/3 Cup of Chia Seeds
Refrigerate for 4 hours
Add Chocolate Chips, Raspberry, Whipped Cream
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated and there are no lumps.
Slowly pour in the coconut milk while continuing to whisk the mixture. Make sure everything is well combined and smooth.
Once the mixture is smooth, add the chia seeds to the bowl. Stir them in until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into individual jars or containers with lids.
Place the pudding mixture in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding to the desired consistency.
After chilling, give the pudding a good stir to redistribute the chia seeds. You can adjust the consistency by adding more coconut milk if desired.
Serve the chocolate chia seed pudding chilled, either on its own or topped with your favorite fruits, nuts, or coconut flakes for added flavor and texture.
Enjoy your homemade Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding! It's a delicious and nutritious treat that's perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a satisfying snack.
