Print Recipe

A rich, creamy chocolate chia pudding that satisfies your sweet tooth while nourishing your body. This easy, plant-based recipe is perfect for breakfast or a healthy dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey for non-vegan)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon almond butter
  • Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.)
  • Optional: 1/4 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc.)
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chia seeds and cocoa powder. Stir until the cocoa is evenly mixed.
  2. Add almond milk and whisk well to eliminate lumps and fully incorporate the cocoa.
  3. Stir in maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
  5. Once set, stir the pudding well. Add a splash of milk if the texture is too thick.
  6. Serve chilled with your choice of toppings like berries, nuts, or coconut.

Notes

For extra creaminess, blend the mixture before refrigerating. Toasting nuts or coconut toppings enhances flavor. Ensure chia seeds soak long enough for ideal texture.
