Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted mixed nuts
- 2 cups almond milk
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
Start by grinding the unsalted mixed nuts in a food processor until they are finely textured but not yet a paste.
In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup of almond milk with the cornstarch until thoroughly dissolved and smooth.
Add the remaining 1 cup of almond milk, ground nuts, honey, and vanilla extract to the saucepan.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and cook while continuously stirring to avoid lumps, until the mixture starts to thicken, about 10 minutes.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat, and stir in the chia seeds and ground cinnamon.
Pour the pudding into serving glasses or bowls and let it cool down to room temperature.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours to set completely.
Before serving, garnish with sliced almonds for an extra nutty crunch.
Serve chilled and enjoy your low sodium nutty pudding!
