- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 4 hours
- Yield: Serves 4
- Cuisine: Vegan
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or thawed frozen raspberries
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened plant-based milk (like almond, oat, or coconut)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mash the raspberries with a fork until they're mostly pulpy, but keep a few chunks for texture.
- Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract, stirring thoroughly to combine the flavors.
- Sprinkle the chia seeds over the mixture, ensuring each seed is fully enveloped in the raspberry blend.
- Gradually pour in the plant-based milk, mixing until the seeds are uniformly dispersed.
- Seal the mixture with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to expand and thicken.
- Before serving, give the mixture a good stir to integrate any separated layers. Enjoy it chilled with toppings like extra berries or coconut flakes if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the chia seeds are well mixed to prevent clumping.
- If the pudding is too thin after chilling, try adding an extra tablespoon of chia seeds and allow it to sit for another hour.
- Taste the mixture before refrigerating. Adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup if needed.
