Ingredients
Scale
For the Chia Pudding:
- 3 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 10 large medjool dates, pitted
- 2/3 cup raw cashews
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee (regular or decaf)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
For the caramel sauce (optional, but encouraged):
- 1/4 cup maple syrup OR agave
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Add all the chia pudding ingredients, except for the chia seeds, into a high speed blender. Blend until smooth. Add in the chia seeds and blend on low until they are stirred into the liquid. Pour into jars and pop in the fridge until it the chia seeds plump up and the pudding thickens, about 4 hours.
- Once the pudding has thickened, add all the caramel sauce ingredients into a small saucepan. Heat over medium, stirring constantly, until the sauce comes together, about 5 minutes. Pour a layer of the caramel over each of the chia puddings and return to the fridge to allow the caramel to set, about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Enjoy!
