Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (thawed if frozen)
- 3 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1–2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (optional, to taste)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp lemon zest or pinch of salt (optional)
Optional Toppings
- Fresh raspberries
- Coconut flakes
- Granola
- Chopped nuts
Instructions
- Mash or Blend Raspberries: In a bowl, mash the fresh or thawed raspberries using a fork for a chunkier texture, or blend them for a smoother pudding base.
- Combine Ingredients: Stir in the chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sweetener if using, mixing well to ensure everything is evenly combined.
- Initial Rest and Stir: Allow the mixture to sit for 5–10 minutes, then stir again to break up any chia seed clumps and distribute them evenly.
- Refrigerate to Set: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to let the pudding thicken and develop its texture.
- Serve with Toppings: Before serving, stir the pudding once more and add your preferred toppings such as fresh raspberries, coconut flakes, granola, or chopped nuts. Enjoy chilled.
Notes
- For a smoother pudding texture, blend raspberries before mixing with chia seeds.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking by varying the amount of maple syrup or honey.
- Letting the pudding sit overnight enhances the flavor and texture.
- Use any plant-based or dairy milk according to dietary preferences.
- Optional lemon zest adds a zesty brightness to the pudding.
