Description
A delightful dessert that balances sweetness with a refreshing tang, perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a light dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (or agave, adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure)
- Pinch salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or agave, adjust to taste)
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional)
- 1/4 cup fresh raspberries (for garnish)
- 2 tbsp granola (for serving)
- 1 tbsp chopped pistachios (for serving)
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together chia seeds, almond milk, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Make sure there are no clumps of chia seeds and the mixture is smooth.
- Allow the chia mixture to sit for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly. Stir again to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed.
- While your chia pudding is thickening, prepare the raspberry swirl. In a small bowl, mash the 1 cup of raspberries with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and lemon juice (if using) until you have a chunky sauce. Set it aside.
- After the chia pudding has thickened, layer it in serving glasses. Start with a layer of chia pudding, followed by a generous swirl of the raspberry mixture. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled.
- For an extra touch, top each serving with fresh raspberries, a sprinkle of granola, and chopped pistachios.
