Servings: 4 1/2 cup servings
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder I used Valhrona cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- Topping ideas: fresh fruit, granola, chopped nuts, shredded coconut
Sift the unsweetened cocoa powder into a medium bowl to remove any clumps. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk until fully incorporated. Sprinkle the chia seeds over the mixture and whisk to combine.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the pudding thickens. For an even creamier texture, whisk the pudding a few times while it sets. Serve chilled with your favorite toppings.
