4-ingredient chocolate chia pudding - You only need 4 ingredients to make this delicious, low fat, healthy chocolate chia pudding. Just mix the ingredients and let stand the pudding overnight.

I like almost every single sweet recipe, yes, I have a sweet tooth! Desserts taste great, but my digestion has improved a lot since I eat sweet things only for breakfast, as a snack or when I eat at restaurants.

Simple sweet recipes are my favorite ones. I love to cook (it's obvious, I'm a food blogger ?), but I usually make simple recipes, that's why we decided to call our blog Simple Vegan Blog because we wanted to make simple recipes for everyone and make you life easier!

You just need 4 ingredients to make this pudding, what? Yes, only 4: chia seeds, cocoa powder, maple syrup and some plant milk of your choice. It's a super quick recipe that is ready in 10 minutes, although you need to let stand this amazing pudding in the fridge overnight or for at least 4 hours, but it's worth the wait!

When the chia pudding is ready to serve, add your favorite toppings like fruits, nuts, seeds, cacao nibs, Vegan Whipped Cream or whatever.

Hope you like and make this recipe, if you do, please leave a comment, we love to hear from you. Thanks for all your support and for being always there for us! ❤️

Tips:

  • Feel free to use any other sweetener, just add it gently until the pudding is sweet enough for you.
  • To make your pudding creamier, use soy milk, almond milk or some nut milk because they have more fat, although you can use any plant milk or even water.
  • Carob powder or raw cacao also work, but maybe you'll need to add more or less. Carob is also sweeter, so probably you'll need to add less maple syrup.

    Awesome! This is so easy and delicious! I made it the other night, put it in the fridge and actually forgot about it until this morning so I had it for breakfast.. what a bonus! It will be perfect for a sweet snack at night too.

    Can I use the full fat canned coconut milk kind? Or would that be way too thick?

      Hi Monique! You should use 1 cup of milk, but you could try adding more if you want. I think it will be too watery, as you're adding more liquid. Have a nice day!
