Ingredients

Scale

Pudding

  • 2 1/2 cups almond milk
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (no added sugar)
  • 2 tablespoons powdered peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener

Berry Sauce (optional)

  • 1 cup frozen berries (or fresh)
  • 3 tablespoons Swerve sweetener
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Mix peanut butter base: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, powdered peanut butter, Swerve sweetener, and almond milk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Add chia seeds: Stir in the chia seeds thoroughly, ensuring they are evenly dispersed to prevent clumping.
  3. Refrigerate pudding: Spoon the mixture into 3 small containers or jelly jars and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. For best texture, stir the pudding after about 1 hour to break up any clumps, then mix well before serving.
  4. Prepare berry sauce (optional): In a small saucepan, combine the berries, Swerve sweetener, and water. Heat over medium heat and let the mixture simmer until the berries break down and the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.
  5. Break down berries: Use a fork or potato masher to mash the berries if you prefer a smoother sauce or leave it chunky as desired. Remove from heat and allow to cool before using.
  6. Serve and store: When ready, eat the peanut butter chia pudding plain or topped with the cooled berry sauce. Store any leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Notes

  • Stir the chia pudding after 1 hour while chilling to prevent clumps.
  • Use powdered peanut butter to reduce fat and calories while maintaining peanut flavor.
  • The berry sauce is optional but adds a natural sweetness and fruity contrast without added sugar.
  • Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 4 days.
  • For a vegan option, ensure peanut butter and powdered peanut butter are dairy-free.
