Chocolate Chia Pudding

Chocolate Chia Pudding is made by blending coconut and cashew milk with cacao powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt, then mixing in chia seeds. After resting in the refrigerator, the chia seeds absorb the liquid to create a thick, creamy pudding that balances the richness of chocolate with the mild sweetness of maple syrup. This pudding is served chilled in individual jars, making it convenient for grab-and-go snacks or desserts.

  2. Add the chia seeds and pulse to combine. 
  3. Pour the pudding mixture into six 4 oz jars with lids
  4. Allow the jars to sit for 5 minutes, then give them each a shake to break up any clumps and make sure the seeds haven't sunk to the bottom. Store in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
