Chocolate Chia Pudding
If you’re in the mood for a quick and easy vegan breakfast or dessert, this chocolate chia pudding recipe is just what you need. Made with just 5 simple ingredients, this pudding comes together in just 20 minutes and can be served right away or chilled in the fridge overnight for best results.
To make this chocolate chia pudding, simply mix together chia seeds, cocoa powder, sweetener of your choice, and non-dairy milk in a bowl. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and become thick and gelatinous. Then, transfer the pudding to a jar or serving dish and chill in the fridge for at least an hour or overnight.
I like to top my chocolate chia pudding with coconut yogurt and shaved chocolate to make it extra rich and decadent. You can also add in other toppings like fresh fruit, nuts, or coconut flakes if you like. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
