Description
A creamy, fruity, and nutrient-packed chia pudding with bursts of tart raspberry flavor. Perfect for a healthy snack or dessert that’s easy to make and customizable.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup (40g) chia seeds
- 1 cup (240ml) milk (e.g., almond, coconut, oat, or cow’s milk)
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) maple syrup (or honey/agave nectar, to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract
- 1 cup (150g) raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1–2 teaspoons (5-10ml) maple syrup (optional, for raspberry puree)
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly to prevent clumps. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- In a blender, combine raspberries with maple syrup (optional). Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Once the chia pudding has thickened, stir to redistribute the seeds. In serving jars or bowls, layer the chia pudding and raspberry puree as desired.
- Garnish with whole raspberries, a sprinkle of chia seeds, or a drizzle of honey.
- Refrigerate for another 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Serve cold and enjoy!
Notes
If the pudding is too thick after refrigerating, stir in a splash of milk. For a thinner pudding, let it sit longer to thicken. Adjust sweetness to taste, as raspberries are naturally tart.
