Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1–2 tablespoons natural sweetener (maple syrup, honey, agave syrup)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl or jar, whisk together the chia seeds, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt until fully blended to ensure even flavor throughout.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in your choice of milk, sweetener, and vanilla extract; stir thoroughly to dissolve the cocoa and evenly coat the chia seeds.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the mixture and place it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and transform into pudding.
  4. Stir and Serve: After chilling, give the pudding a good stir to smooth out any clumps before serving with your favorite toppings or mix-ins.

Notes

  • Use fine, high-quality natural cocoa powder for the best chocolate flavor.
  • Stir the mixture 10-15 minutes after combining to prevent clumps.
  • Adjust the pudding’s thickness by adding a splash of milk if needed before serving.
  • Sweeten gradually and taste as you go to avoid over-sweetening.
  • Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days to keep fresh.
