Ingredients

  • 2 cups 480 ml plant-based milk (I used soy milk)
  • ¼ cup 40 g + 2 tbsp (20 g) chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp 15 g cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp 15 g almond butter
  • 1 tbsp 15 ml maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup 31 g fresh raspberries, for topping

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS

  • Chopped dried cranberries + chopped pecans
  • Fresh or frozen blueberries + almond slivers
  • Peanut butter + sliced banana

Instructions

  • Add the plant-based milk, chia seeds, cocoa powder, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract and salt to a mason jar or a container with a lid. Whisk everything together until all of the ingredients are well combined, then refrigerate it for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, whisk all of the ingredients together again. You’ll notice that the chia pudding has slightly thickened. Place it back in the fridge for at least 4 hours to let it thicken further. Note: This step is important to prevent clumps in your chia pudding.
  • Once you’re ready to enjoy, top it with the raspberries. You can also add any additional toppings, like nut or seed butter, or other fruit, nuts, or seeds.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Notes

  1. Using soy milk in this recipe adds about 8 grams of protein per serving, which is why I prefer it.
  2. Feel free to adjust the chia seed to plant-based milk ratio based on your preferences for thickness. This ratio of chia seeds to milk makes for a thick Greek yogurt–like consistency. If you prefer a thinner consistency, use just ¼ cup (40 g) of chia seeds, or adjust based on your preference. You can also mix in more milk after the chia pudding has set to thin it to your desired consistency.
  3. If you don’t typically like the texture of chia pudding, try blending all of the ingredients together, except the raspberries, before placing it in the fridge so you’re left with a smooth pudding consistency.
