Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by washing, peeling, and finely grating the carrots until you have 1/4 cup (27g). Set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl or jar, add the grated carrots, chia seeds, and ground cinnamon.
- Stir in the honey until well combined.
- Pour 1 cup (240g) of coconut milk into the mixture. Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes. This resting period will let the chia seeds start to absorb the liquid.
- After 5 minutes, give the mixture another good stir to prevent the seeds from clumping together.
- Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator.
- Let the pudding set for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
- Once set, give the pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash more coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve chilled, as is, or topped with additional grated carrots, a sprinkle of cinnamon, some nuts, or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
Tips:
- Grate the carrots finely to ensure they blend well with the pudding.
- Use a high-quality cinnamon for the best flavor.
- Make sure to stir the mixture well to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together.
- You can prepare this pudding the night before and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight to allow the chia seeds to fully expand and the flavors to meld.
- Feel free to customize the sweetness to your taste by adjusting the amount of honey used.
- Top with some shredded coconut, nuts, or raisins for added texture and flavor.
Carrot Cake Chia Pudding is not only a delicious treat but also a nutritious option that can easily fit into your diet. With its combination of sweet, creamy, and slightly spicy flavors, it’s bound to be a hit. Remember to experiment with toppings and adjust the sweetness to your liking. Enjoy this healthy and tasty pudding!
