Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, chocolate protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
  2. Stir in the chia seeds until evenly distributed.
  3. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent the chia seeds from clumping.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the pudding to thicken.
  5. Once set, stir the pudding and serve as desired, adding toppings like fresh fruit or nuts for an extra crunch!

Notes

This pudding lasts up to 5 days in the fridge. Give it a quick stir before serving again. Avoid freezing to maintain texture.
