SUPER SIMPLE 5-INGREDIENT CHOCOLATE CHIA SEED PUDDING RECIPE
This recipe is so simple, good, and packed with nutrients, it's a no-brainer to try! It's also a great (healthy) way to cure your sweet tooth.
Serves 2
YOU’LL NEED:
- 1/4 cup chia seeds (add 2 more tablespoons if blending*)
- 1 cup milk of choice (I prefer coconut but everyone else likes almond milk)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (or more to taste)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 splash vanilla extract
- TOPPINGS: berries, banana, shaved coconut, seed/nut butter, chocolate chips, sprinkles, etc.
HERE’S HOW:
- Add all ingredients together in a 12 oz (or larger) glass, jar, or container. Whisk well.
- Let sit for 10-ish minutes, then whisk again (or cover and shake).
- Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- Remover from fridge, spoon into serving bowl or glass, top with whatever suits your fancy (ideas above!), and enjoy!
- *If wanting a smoother consistency, add ingredients to a blender (including 2 extra tablespoons of chia seeds) and blend until combined. Pour into container or jar, cover and refrigerate as explained above!
