  • To allow the chia seeds to gel, let the mixture sit in the bowl for 15 minutes without stirring. Whisk it together one more time after 15 minutes. After covering the bowl, refrigerate it for at least four hours or overnight.

NOTE

  • If you notice your chia seeds aren’t starting to gel and thicken after 10 minutes, you may have dud chia seeds. This can happen if they’ve been sitting in your pantry for a while. Just grab a new bag of chia seeds.

  • If you want that frosted look on your berries, here’s how you do it. In a single layer on a plate, freeze fresh berries that have been washed and are completely dry. Once they’re frozen, add them to the chocolate chia pudding. About 2 to 3 minutes later (as they come to room temperature), they’ll have that frosted look. But serve them up quick because it doesn’t last long!

WHAT KIND OF MILK CAN I USE IN CHIA SEED PUDDING?

  • You can make this chocolate chia seed pudding with any kind of milk, even dairy-free milk. I’m using my personal favorite cashew milk recipe today. However, you may also use banana milk, oat milk, or almond milk.

  • This recipe will probably be thicker than the other options if you use canned full-fat coconut milk. If you would like to thin it down, you may easily add extra milk or water.

HOW LONG WILL THE PUDDING LAST?

  • Chocolate chia pudding can be left in the fridge for about 4 to 5 days. This makes it an easy treat to make in a large batch and enjoy over the course of a week.

  • If you have leftovers you can even freeze it! It will last for up to 3 months in the freezer. Then simply thaw as needed when those chocolate cravings strike. Meal prepped chia pudding for dessert? Oh yes. You’re welcome!
