Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup fresh raspberries (mashed + more for topping)
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings (Optional)

  • Granola
  • Additional fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mason jar or bowl, stir together the mashed raspberries, unsweetened almond milk, plain Greek yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
  2. Rest Mixture: Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps that may have formed, ensuring the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
  3. Chill to Set: Place the mixture in the refrigerator and allow it to set for at least 30 minutes, or up to 12 hours, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
  4. Add Toppings and Serve: When ready to eat, top with additional fresh raspberries and granola if desired, then enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any plant-based or dairy milk of your choice.
  • Adjust maple syrup quantity to taste for sweetness preference.
  • For a vegan version, use a plant-based yogurt alternative.
  • Letting the pudding sit longer enhances thickness and texture.
  • Use fresh or frozen raspberries; if using frozen, thaw before mashing.
