Servings: 3 servings
Equipment
- whisk, rubber spatula
Ingredients
- 1 very ripe banana mashed
- ¼ cup cacao powder
- ½ cup yogurt
- ¼ cup peanut butter*
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ½ cup chia seeds
- 2 cups milk I used homemade cashew milk
- 2 tbsp cacao nibs
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Add banana to a container large enough for the entire recipe with a lid. Mash the banana well.
- Add cacao powder, yogurt, peanut butter and vanilla and mix well.
- Add chia seeds and milk and mix for 1-2 minutes. Let the pudding rest for 5 minutes and then mix again. The more you mix, the faster it gels. Once the chia seeds are thoroughly mixed in, cover the container and place it in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
- Once ready to eat, you can put them in separate jars with lids (see link for the ones I use) and top them with your favourite topping. I chose my strawberry chia jam, yogurt and my granola.
