It’s about time I share with you the recipe for Andy’s favorite Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Seed Pudding! I make this on a weekly basis because it’s so easy/tastes like you’re eating dessert for breakfast. Lucky you, this recipe is sweetened with banana and a touch of maple syrup, so no sugar crash! You’re getting the best of both worlds with this easy-to-make breakfast.

I also love that that this recipe:

  • is super creamy, chocolate-y, and packed with peanut butter flavor
  • takes less than 10 minutes to make
  • uses 6 ingredients that you’ve already got on hand
  • refined sugar-free, only sweetened with banana and a touch of maple syrup
  • great for all dietary needs – vegan, gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free, and dairy-free

Pro tip – I love topping this Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Seed Pudding with homemade Cinnamon Spice Coconut Granola , chocolate chips, and extra peanut butter. You can never have too much peanut butter, amiright?!

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups almond milk or milk of choice
