Ingredients:

1 cup almond milk
240g
2 tsp maple syrup
13g
2 tsp dry cocoa powder
3.58g
1 tbsp peanut butter
16g
1 oz chia seeds
27g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mixture:
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, maple syrup, dry cocoa powder, and peanut butter.
2. Blend:
- Whisk the ingredients together until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved, and the peanut butter is well incorporated. This may take a minute or two, so ensure the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
3. Add Chia Seeds:
- Stir in the chia seeds, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
4. Rest Period:
- Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, give it another stir to break up any clumps of chia seeds that may have formed. This step helps the chia seeds to start absorbing the liquid.
5. Refrigerate:
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. This allows the chia seeds to expand and the pudding to thicken.
6. Serving:
- After chilling, give the pudding a good stir. Spoon it into individual serving cups or bowls.
7. Optional Toppings:
- Top with sliced bananas, strawberries, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of extra peanut butter for added flavor and texture.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve the chocolate peanut butter chia pudding chilled and enjoy your delicious, healthy treat!

Tips:

- For a smoother texture, blend the almond milk, peanut butter, and cocoa powder before mixing in the chia seeds.

- Stir the mixture well before refrigerating to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and prevent clumping.

- For added sweetness, adjust the amount of maple syrup to taste or use other natural sweeteners like agave nectar or honey.

- Consider adding a pinch of salt to enhance the chocolate and peanut butter flavors.

- Let the pudding sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

- Top your pudding with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of additional peanut butter before serving for extra flavor and texture.
