Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Chia seeds
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 tablespoons Erythritol or low-carb sweetener of choice
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 1 whole Vanilla bean pod (optional)
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries for topping (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl or airtight container, combine the chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, and heavy cream.
Add the vanilla extract, erythritol or chosen low-carb sweetener, and salt to the chia mixture, and stir thoroughly until well combined.
If using, slice open the vanilla bean pod, scrape out the seeds, and stir them into the pudding mixture for an extra depth of flavor.
Cover the bowl or container with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds to swell and the pudding to thicken.
After the pudding has set, give it a good stir to ensure even texture.
Serve the pudding chilled, topped with fresh berries if desired.
Enjoy this creamy, low-carb treat as a breakfast, snack, or satisfying dessert.
