We featured these little puddings at a recent wellness day, and they were a hit! It's a simple, 6-ingredient pudding that's naturally sweetened and so thick and creamy. Loaded with nutrients, these puddings are perfect for breakfast, a snack or dessert!
You can keep leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 5 days, although they are best when fresh.
INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup cacao powder, sifted to remove clumps
3-5 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (cayenne ideally)
1 pinch of sea salt (Celtic or Himalayan, ideally)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1⁄2 cups coconut or preferred dairy-free milk
1/2 cup chia seeds
METHOD
To a small mixing bowl add cacao powder, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, salt and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Add small amounts of milk at a time, whisking until a paste forms.
Add remaining milk and whisk until smooth.
Add chia seeds and whisk to combine.
Cover and refrigerate overnight, or at least 3-5 hours (until it’s achieved a pudding-like consistency). It may also be helpful to give the mixture an extra stir once it has been in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes.
Serve chilled with desired toppings, such as fruit, granola or coconut yoghurt.
