💕 Benefits of Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are the star of this recipe, providing a unique texture and a host of health benefits. These tiny seeds are known for their ability to absorb liquid and create a gel-like consistency, making them an excellent base for puddings.
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, and protein, chia seeds can support digestive health, promote satiety, and provide a boost of energy.
They're also a great addition to a candida diet or keto diet due to their low carbohydrate content.
📋 Ingredients
- Chia seeds - The superstar ingredient that gives this pudding its unique texture and nutrition.
- Plant milk - Choose from coconut, organic oat, organic soya, or almond milk for a creamy and dairy-free base.
- Frozen blueberries - Bursting with antioxidants and natural sweetness, blueberries add both colour and flavour.
- Powdered xylitol - A sugar-free sweetener that adds a touch of sweetness without the impact on blood sugar.
- Unsweetened coconut yogurt to crown your keto chia pudding
- Toasted coconut flakes - A delightful and crunchy topping that enhances the overall texture. I urge you not to skip this ingredient!
