Description
This easy chocolate chia seed pudding makes a rich and healthy treat, perfect for breakfast or as a snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or mashed dates
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent the seeds from clumping.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight until it thickens.

Notes
Use fine cocoa for a smooth taste. Stir at the 10 minute mark to break lumps. If too thick, add more almond milk; if too thin, add 1 more teaspoon of chia seeds.
