Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Liquids
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave syrup)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Seeds
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the Raspberries: Rinse the raspberries gently under cold water to remove any impurities, then pat them completely dry using a paper towel to avoid excess water diluting the pudding.
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the fresh raspberries, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and evenly combined.
- Add Chia Seeds: Pour the blended raspberry mixture into a bowl or jar and add the chia seeds. Stir thoroughly to ensure that the chia seeds are evenly distributed and begin to absorb the liquid.
- Chill to Set: Cover the mixture and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour. For a thicker, pudding-like consistency, refrigerate overnight to allow the chia seeds to fully swell and thicken the mixture.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen raspberries, but if using frozen, thaw and drain excess water before blending.
- For added texture and flavor, top with nuts, coconut flakes, or additional fresh fruit before serving.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup according to taste.
- This pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For a nut-free version, use coconut milk or oat milk instead of almond milk.
