Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 cup plant-based milk (almond, coconut, or oat milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Fruit

  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

Instructions

  1. Mix the Base Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine chia seeds, plant-based milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumping together.
  2. Add Raspberries: Gently fold in fresh or thawed raspberries, lightly mashing some to release their natural juices and color, which will beautifully tint the pudding.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight. This resting time allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create that signature pudding consistency.
  4. Stir and Serve: Before serving, give the pudding a stir to distribute any settled liquid. Add extra toppings if desired, then enjoy your naturally sweet and creamy Raspberry Chia Pudding with Maple Syrup!

Notes

  • Whisk the chia seeds with the milk thoroughly to prevent clumps for a smooth texture.
  • Taste the mixture before refrigerating and adjust maple syrup for your preferred sweetness level.
  • For a thicker pudding, increase chia seeds to 3 tablespoons per cup of milk.
  • Use fresh raspberries for the brightest flavor, but frozen works great when fresh aren’t available.
  • Create visually appealing layers by adding raspberry puree and pudding alternately in serving jars.
