Description
A creamy and delicious Avocado & Cocoa Chia Pudding that is both nutritious and satisfying.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the ripe avocado, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond milk, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds with the blended avocado mixture. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
- Once thickened, stir the pudding again before serving. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve chilled, topped with fresh berries, sliced bananas, or a sprinkle of nuts if desired.
Notes
- For a sweeter pudding, adjust the amount of maple syrup or honey according to your taste.
- You can add a tablespoon of nut butter for extra creaminess and flavor, or substitute the cocoa powder with carob powder for a different taste.
