Happy weekend, all! This recipe comes to you as a result of requests from some patient, kind folks who attempted to find this in my Instagram gallery (from around a year ago), and did not succeed. Here is the recipe in its entirety, along with an apology for not having it up here earlier! This super simple breakfast treat tastes like a chocolate milkshake, yet is packed full of wholesome goodies that will provide satiation and sustenance to see you through your morning.
Oh, and it makes a pretty great dessert too!
Enjoy!

5-INGREDIENT CHOCOLATE
CHIA PUDDING
Gluten- and refined sugar-free, vegan
Prep time: 2 min | Standing time: 20 min – overnight
INGREDIENTS
70 ml (1/4 cup + 2 tsp) chia seeds
415 ml (1 3/4 cup) roasted almond milk (or milk of choice)
3 tbsp raw cacao powder or organic cocoa powder
2.5 – 3 tbsp maple syrup (or to taste)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Fresh blueberries, dark chocolate chunks and/or coyo or oat yogurt to serve (optional)
DIRECTIONS
- Combine all pudding ingredients in a bowl, stirring well to ensure everything is thoroughly incorporated.
- Allow to sit until the chia seeds hydrate, become gelatinous and the pudding thickens*. This can take as little as 20 minutes, though for a thicker pudding 3-4 hours in the fridge is recommended and will do the trick.
- Serve and enjoy!
If serving with the toppings pictured, add a couple of heaped tablespoons of chia pudding into a jar/glass, top with a tablespoon or two of plant yogurt, add in a little more chia pudding, then pop some chocolate chunks and blueberries on top.
*If prepping ahead, the pudding can be covered and left in the fridge. To bring it to a thinner consistency if desired, more milk can be added and stirred through.
5-INGREDIENSERS CHOKLADCHIAPUDDING
Glutenfri och fri från raffinerat socker, vegansk
INGREDIENSER
70 ml (1/4 cup + 2 tsk) chiafrön
415 ml (1 3/4 cup) mandelmjölk (eller valfritt mjölkalternativ)
3 msk raw cacao-pulver eller ekologiskt kakaopulver
2,5 – 3 msk lönnsirap (eller enligt smak)
1/2 tsk vaniljextrakt
Färska blåbär, mörkchokladbitar och/eller cokosyoghurt eller havreyoghurt att servera (valfritt)
INSTRUKTIONER
- Blanda alla puddingingredienserna i en skål. Blanda väl och säkerställ att allt är jämnt fördelat.
- Låt stå tills chiafröna har svällt och blivit geleaktiga så att puddingen tjocknar*. Detta kan ta så lite som 20 minuter, men för en tjockare pudding blir resultatet bättre om du låter den stå 3-4 timmar i kylskåpet.
- Servera och njut!
Om du vill servera så som i bilderna, tillsätt ett par rågade matskedar chiapudding i ett glas, lägg över en matsked växtbaserad yoghurt varvat med lite mer chiapudding. Toppa sedan med chokladbitar och blåbär.
*Om du tillreder puddingen i förväg kan den täckas över och lämnas i kylskåpet över natten. Om du vill få till en tunnare konsistens, tillsätt lite mjölk och rör om.
