Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding Recipe


This chia seed pudding is simply delicious and doesnt taste like a healthy treat.

You can have it for a snack, for breakfast with fruit or as a dessert when you feel like chocolate at night.
It is high in omega 3 and also contains antioxidants, protein and fibre.

It is good for people who are gluten intolerant and great for diabetics who want a sweet treat. The rice malt syrup in the recipe can be replaced with honey, maple syrup or stevia. The recipe is also vegan and is doesnt contain raw egg like some chocolate mousses or puddings which makes it safe for pregnant women, children and the elderly.

Chia Seed Pudding 
This recipe is for one serving but can be easily adjusted to feed a crowed. Just follow the basic rule: 2 tablespoons of chia seeds to 1/2 cup milk per person.

Ingredients:

For 1 serving:
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1/2 cup coconut and almond milk (you can use any milk you like)
1 heap tablespoon good quality coco powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon Rice Malt Syrup or any sweetener
fruit to garnish

Method:

1) Put all the dry ingredients into a bowel including the chia seeds

2) stir in the milk and vanilla extract to combine

3) place in the fridge for at least two hours to set (or overnight)

4) top with any fruit you like, you can even add crushed nuts for extra crunch and protein

Tips:

1) Stir the mixture a couple of times in the first 1/2 hour to ensure the chia seeds are even throughout the pudding mixture.

2)  If you want a smooth pudding and dont want the crunch of the chia seeds, grind the seeds in a mortar and pestle or a coffee grinder before adding the wet ingredients, this way the pudding will be smoother

3) if you dont want to do chocolate flavour you can do any flavour you like, mango (by adding mango pulp to the milk, vanilla (adding extra vanilla instead of chocolate) or even coconut (adding coconut milk with shredded coconut)
