Prep Time 15 minutes

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any preferred milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of one orange
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: dark chocolate shavings orange slices, or nuts

Method
 

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, orange zest, orange juice, and salt. Stir well to ensure the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
  2. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture into a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Place it in the refrigerator and let it sit for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.
  3. Stir and Serve: Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps. Spoon it into individual serving dishes.
  4. Garnish: Top with optional dark chocolate shavings, fresh orange slices, or nuts for added texture and flavor.
