Ingredients
  • 6 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 1.5 cups Plant-Based Milk (Almond, Soy, or Oat)
  • 2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder (Unsweetened)
  • 2 tablespoons Peanut Butter (Natural)
  • 2-3 tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Pinch of Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Vegan Chocolate Chips (Optional)

Combine Ingredients

In a medium-sized bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds, plant-based milk, cocoa powder, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt.

Mix Well

Stir all ingredients together vigorously until well combined. Ensure the cocoa powder and peanut butter are fully incorporated and there are no clumps of chia seeds.

Chill

Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency. Stir well after the first hour to prevent clumping.

Stir and Serve

Before serving, stir the chia seed pudding well. If it's too thick, add a splash more plant-based milk to reach your desired consistency. Top with vegan chocolate chips, if desired. For an extra touch, drizzle a small amount of melted peanut butter on top.
