Creamy Chocolate Chia Pudding
A rich and satisfying chocolate pudding made with simple, wholesome ingredients that you can prep in just minutes.
recipesbynani.comI am usually pretty picky when it comes to healthy desserts, as I dislike when they have a hidden vegetable taste. This chocolate chia pudding is different because it tastes like a genuine treat while giving you a nice boost of fiber and protein to start your day or end your evening.
It is incredibly simple to put together since you just whisk everything in a bowl and let the fridge do the hard work. I love using coconut milk for an extra creamy texture, but you can use whatever milk you have on hand.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups milk of your choice
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Add the milk, chia seeds, cocoa powder, and maple syrup to a medium mixing bowl or a glass jar.
- 2
Whisk or stir the mixture well until the cocoa powder is fully combined and there are no large lumps remaining.
- 3
Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator for at least two hours or overnight.
- 4
Give the pudding a quick stir before serving to ensure the texture is even throughout.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. You can serve this with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh berries on top for an extra special touch.
