Peanut Butter Chia Pudding Recipe

Ingredients:

• 30 grams of chia seeds (about 2 tablespoons)

• 1 cup (240 ml) almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

• 1-2 teaspoons sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or agave syrup)

• 1 tablespoon peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

• Fresh fruits, chopped nuts, or granola for topping (optional)

Instructions:

1. Mix the Ingredients:

   • In a glass jar or bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, sweetener, peanut butter, and vanilla extract if using.

   • Stir well, ensuring the peanut butter is well incorporated with the liquid and chia seeds.

2. Let it Set:

   • Cover the jar or bowl and place it in the refrigerator.

   • Allow the mixture to sit for at least 4 hours, or overnight, so the chia seeds absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like texture.

3. Stir Again:

   • After about an hour in the fridge, give the mixture another stir to prevent clumping and ensure even distribution of the chia seeds and peanut butter.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once the pudding has thickened, it’s ready to serve.

   • Top with fresh bananas, a drizzle of extra peanut butter, or a handful of granola or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Variations:

• Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Pudding: Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder for a rich, chocolatey flavor.

• Banana Peanut Butter Chia Pudding: Mash half a banana and mix it in with the peanut butter for a creamy, banana-infused taste.

Peanut butter adds creaminess, protein, and a satisfying flavor to this chia pudding, making it even more nutritious and filling!
