Instructions
- To a Mason jar or any container with a tight lid (I prefer glass), add milk, maple syrup and vanilla. Then add chia and cacao powder. It’s important to add ingredients in the order listed in the recipe – liquids first.
- Whisk well or stir vigorously with a fork until cacao powder is well combined with the rest of ingredients.
- Let sit for 10 minutes and stir again.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- When ready to eat, stir well again. Some lumps are OK, just stir well. The thickness and sweetness can be adjusted to your taste.
Store: Refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Notes
*If using coconut milk, make sure it’s from the carton and not a thick coconut milk from a can.
**For a thick consistency pudding use 4 tbsp chia seeds, for soup like consistency (pictured) use only 3 tbsp (my favorite).
