What is chia pudding?
Chia seeds, when placed in a liquid, create a gelatinous coating that sticks together like pudding!
It's a much easier and tastier way to eat your chia then trying to remember to sprinkle them on your oatmeal or salad. And it's definitely not as messy as eating them from a spoon.
Chia pudding is super healthy and a delicious breakfast. With Omega-3s, protein, fiber and tons of other nutrients from the chia seeds, combined with fruit, plant milk, and other tasty add-ins, you've got yourself an amazing meal.

Ingredient Notes
- Cold Brew Coffee: your favorite cold brew is perfect for this recipe. I recommend an unsweetened brew so you can control the sugar level. You could also make your own cold brew.
- Banana: a banana adds nutrients, like fiber, and some sweetness. If you are sensitive to the tase of banana, you could use applesauce instead.
- Maple Syrup: for extra sweetness. Feel free to omit it entirely or use date syrup.
- Cocoa Powder: a bit of cocoa powder helps enhance the coffee flavor.
- Vanilla Extract: vanilla also helps enhance the coffee flavor
- Salt: you guessed it - salt helps enhance the coffee flavor
- Chia Seeds: head over to Wilderness Poets and use code ELIZABETH10 for $10 off your purchase of chia seeds (and other delicious plant-based foods)
- Toppings: chocolate chips, non-dairy yogurt, coconut cream, banana, etc.
