Ingredients
Chocolate Chia Pudding
- 2 TBSP Cacao powder
- ¼ cup Chia seeds
- 2 TBSP Maple syrup or honey or agave syrup, adjust to taste
- 1 cup Your choice of milk
- ½ tsp Vanilla extract
Strawberries
- ½ cup Strawberries hulled and sliced
Whipped Cream
- ¼ cup Heavy cream (or use store-bought whipped cream)
- 1 tsp Maple syrup or confectioner’s sugar
Fruit
- 1 cup Mixed fruit (e.g. blueberries raspberries banana slices)
Orange Juice
- 16 oz Orange juice
Instructions
- Combine dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix chia seeds and cacao powder until evenly distributed.
- Add wet ingredients: Pour in milk, maple syrup or alternative sweetener, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine, ensuring no clumps of cocoa remain.
- Optional blending: For a smoother texture, transfer the mixture to a blender and blend for 20-30 seconds until fully incorporated. Return it to the bowl if blended.
- Let it set: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow the chia seeds to thicken the pudding. Stir once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.
- Prepare toppings: Just before serving, wash, hull, and slice strawberries for topping the chia pudding, and prepare the side of mixed fruit as needed.
- Whip cream (if using fresh): In a small, chilled bowl, add the heavy cream and maple syrup or confectioner’s sugar, and whip with a chilled whisk or hand mixer until soft peaks form.
- Assemble: Divide the thickened pudding into serving bowls or glasses. Top each with whipped cream and sliced strawberries, serve with mixed fruit and orange juice.
