Description
A creamy, dairy-free chia pudding that combines sweet raspberries and nutritious chia seeds for a quick and healthy breakfast treat.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds (Use a reliable starting point for thickness.)
- 1 cup unsweetened plant milk (Almond, soy, oat, or coconut milks are great options.)
- 1 cup raspberries (Fresh or frozen.)
- 2-3 tablespoons plant protein powder or soy yogurt (Optional but boosts protein content.)
- 1-2 tablespoons sweetener of choice (Maple syrup, agave, or a zero calorie sweetener.)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Enhances the sweetness and flavor.)
- a pinch salt (Enhances raspberry flavor.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Mash your raspberries in a bowl. If they are frozen, let them sit for a few minutes to soften.
- Add plant milk, chia seeds, vanilla, sweetener, and a pinch of salt. If using protein powder, whisk it into the milk first.
- Stir well for 20-30 seconds to ensure chia seeds are evenly dispersed.
- Wait 5 minutes, then stir again to avoid clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
Notes
Stir twice, once initially and once after 5 minutes to keep chia seeds from clumping together. Adjust the thickness by adding more chia seeds or plant milk as needed. This pudding can be used in various ways, including parfaits or smoothies.
