Description
Whip up this peanut butter cup chia pudding for breakfast or dessert and satisfy all your cravings while getting some nutrients too.
Ingredients
Units
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk (vanilla; plus 2-3 tablespoons more if desired)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar (or maple syrup)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter (for drizzling)
- Mini semisweet chocolate chips (for topping)
Instructions
- In a mason jar or container with a lid, combine chia seeds, almond milk, cocoa powder, agave, and salt.
- Stir with a spoon or top with lid and shake vigorously until well combined.
- Refrigerate overnight, or at least 3 hours.
- After refrigerating, you can add a couple more tablespoons of almond milk if you prefer, to make it a little creamier. I did this because mine was pretty thick after sitting overnight.
- Once ready to eat, heat peanut butter in microwave for 30 seconds.
- Drizzle peanut butter over chia pudding and top with chocolate chips, if desired.
