A delightful and nutritious chocolate chia pudding packed with protein and fiber, perfect for dessert or a healthy snack.

  • Total Time: 240 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of sea salt
  • Optional toppings: fresh berries, nuts, shredded coconut, or Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  2. Use a whisk to mix everything thoroughly until no clumps of cocoa powder are left; the texture should be creamy but slightly thickened.
  3. Add a pinch of sea salt to enhance the chocolate flavor.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or pour the mixture into individual jars. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
  5. Once set, stir to break up any clumps and serve chilled with your chosen toppings.

Notes

For a smoother texture, blend the mixture before refrigerating. Adjust sweetness to taste after mixing.
