Chocolate Chia Pudding with Figs
Chia pudding is one of the easiest, most wholesome breakfasts around and it's especially tasty when you add chocolate. This Chocolate Chia Pudding with Figs is easy to make and loaded with chocolate flavor, protein and fiber. {gluten free, dairy free, vegan}
Ingredients
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk unsweetened
- 1-2 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Whisk all ingredients together in a jar or a bowl. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.
- When ready to serve, stir well and add toppings of your choice. I added coconut yogurt and pieces of dark chocolate.
Notes
- I don't add maple syrup at all because my toppings in this case were sweet. Feel free to add more or less sweetener as needed.
- Feel free to use almond milk, coconut milk, cow's milk, oat milk or hemp milk. It all works just as well.
- Nutrition information is calculated without toppings.
