Step-by-Step Instructions.
Step 1.
To begin, mix together the cacao powder and water with a wisk. You can then add it to the fridge for whenever you’d like to make a bowl.
Step 2.
Next, add the blueberries, oat milk, and honey to a blender. If the blueberries are frozen, you may need to let them sit for a few minutes in the blender to thaw out. Otherwise you might have to add a little more oat milk. Just add more littly by little. Blend it all together until for a minute or two, until you don’t see any more plump blueberries. It’ll become a little frothy and that’s okay!
Step 3.
Next, transfer the blended ingredients to a bowl and add in your chia seeds. Wisk it until it’s all mixed together and there aren’t any clumps of chia seeds. You may need to let it sit for a few minutes and then wisk again in case any seeds decided to stick together.
Step 4.
Cover and transfer the pudding to the fridge for a minimum of 5 hours (although optimal time is about 10-12 hours). This gives the chia seeds enough time to absorb the liquid, creating a velvety treat!
Step 5.
Lastly, once the pudding has had enough time to sit, transfer half of it to a bowl, wash some fruit, and add your other toppings!
General Notes:
– Other dairy-free milk can work, but I like oat milk the best. It creates a great texture for the pudding.
– The cacao mix is totally optional.
– Feel free to double or triple the recipe. It’ll last in the fridge for up to 7 days.
