Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (I used unsweetened vanilla oat)
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup chia seeds
Instructions
- Pour the milk into a large measuring cup or bowl.
- Add in the maple syrup, cocoa powder, and cinnamon and whisk until combined and no lumps remain.
- Stir in the chia seeds.
- Pour the pudding into 2 mason jars or other containers with lids. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the pudding to thicken. (Shake or stir the pudding 2-3 times during chilling to keep the ingredients from separating.)
- Top with fruit, granola, or nuts if desired.

Notes
- Storage: Store chia pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Stir well before enjoying.
- This recipe make 2 (6-ounce) servings
- Let your pudding sit overnight if at all possible. It needs time to sit in the fridge so that the chia seeds expand and create the pudding texture.
- Top the pudding with something crunchy for added texture, such as chopped peanut, chopped pecans, or even your favorite brand of granola.
- Add fruit to your pudding to make it even better. Sliced bananas and strawberries will go great with this chocolate pudding.
