Vanilla Layer Ingredients
Chia Seeds – Chia seeds are superfoods, loaded with vitamins and minerals, and rich in omega fatty acids. Vanilla Extract – to bring taste to you pudding. Almond Milk or any plant-based milk you love. For a nut-free version, swap the almond milk for oat milk, coconut milk, or soy milk for a protein boost. Maple Syrup or any refined sugar-free sweetener. Chia seeds are low in carbohydrates. Use a liquid sugar-free sweetener like monk fruit maple flavored syrup to remove the added sugar.
Coffee Chocolate Layer
For this layer, the ratio of chia seed to liquid is slightly different because the cocoa powder contains fiber and also absorbs liquid.
Chia Seeds – black or white chia work for this layer as they are embedded in chocolate. Strong Brewed Coffee – make your own to the strength you like. Almond Milk or any non-dairy milk you love. For a nut-free version, swap the almond milk for oat milk, coconut milk, or soy milk for a protein boost. Maple Syrup, agave syrup, or any sugar-free option.
