CHOCOLATE CHIA SEED PUDDING







CHOCOLATE CHIA SEED PUDDING









Want chocolate? This classic chocolate pudding with chia seeds is a healthy way to satisfy your craving for chocolate!

Ingredients
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3-5 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 cup cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 cups Almond Breeze Almondmilk Original Unsweetened (or light coconut milk for creamier texture!)

Instructions

First, In a small bowl, add the cocoa powder (sift first to reduce lumps), maple syrup, ground cinnamon, salt and vanilla, then whisk. Then add a little dairy-free milk at a time and whisk until you get a dough. Then add the rest of the dairy-free milk and beat until smooth.

Then, Add the chia seeds and whip once more to mix well. Then cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 3-5 hours (until you get a pudding consistency). It may also be helpful to give the mixture an extra whip / mix once it has been in the refrigerator for 30 to 45 minutes.

The leftovers stay in the fridge for 4 to 5 days, but they are better when they are fresh. Serve chilled with the desired toppings, such as fruit, muesli or coconut whipped cream. Happy Cooking Time.
