A Chocolate Indulgence: Cocoa-Chia Pudding with Raspberries

Who says you can't have chocolate for breakfast? This incredibly healthy chia pudding is a delightful departure from the ordinary, offering a rich, chocolatey flavor that pairs perfectly with the vibrant sweetness of raspberries. It's a fun and satisfying alternative to your usual morning oatmeal routine.

A Symphony of Textures and Flavors

This chia pudding is a testament to the versatility of this tiny superfood. When combined with liquid, chia seeds transform into a delightful pudding-like consistency, offering a canvas for endless flavor combinations. In this rendition, the deep cocoa notes harmonize with the bright, tart raspberries, creating a symphony of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds.

Crafting a Wholesome Delight

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or other nondairy milk)\
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup fresh raspberries, divided
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sliced almonds, divided

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the almond milk (or other nondairy milk), chia seeds, maple syrup, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until well combined. Ensure there are no clumps of chia seeds.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or up to 3 days, to allow the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
  3. When ready to serve, give the pudding a good stir.
  4. Layer the pudding and raspberries in a serving glass or bowl, starting with half of the pudding, followed by half of the raspberries and almonds. Repeat the layers with the remaining pudding, raspberries, and almonds.
This chia pudding is not only delicious but also a nutritional powerhouse. Chia seeds are packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants, while raspberries offer a burst of vitamins and minerals. It's a guilt-free indulgence that will nourish your body and delight your senses.
