Ingredients
  

Peanut Butter Chia Pudding
  • 2 cups Milk dairy or plant-based
  • 1/2 cup Chia Seeds fresh
  • 1/4 cup Creamy Peanut Butter natural
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Salt
Optional Toppings
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Peanuts optional
  • 1 small Banana sliced

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Scoop
  • Storage Containers
  • Tray
  • Freezer
  • Refrigerator

Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until completely smooth.
  2. Stir in chia seeds until evenly combined. Rest for 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumps.
  3. Divide the mixture into storage containers, leaving room for toppings.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick, creamy, and spoonable.
  5. Serve chilled with banana slices and chopped peanuts. Add extra milk before serving for a softer texture if desired.

Notes

For a softer texture, stir in extra milk before serving. Chill longer for a thicker consistency. Freeze individual portions without toppings for up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Add toppings after thawing for the best assembly and crunch. Customize with cocoa powder, cinnamon, berries, or honey. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
