The chocolate chia pudding makes a delicious dessert all by itself, but adding fruit, plant-based yoghurt and granola takes it to new heights!
This recipe makes 3-4 servings, depending on how hungry you are :).
Ingredients:
Chocolate Chia Pudding
3 tbsp black or white chia seeds
1/2 packed cup pitted dates
1 1/2 tbsp raw cacao powder
1 cup plant milk (soy, oat, or almond)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Parfait Layers
1 cup plant-milk yoghurt (I make my own, using Bonsoy and a non-dairy culture that I buy online, which results in perfect creamy yoghurt, every time)
1 cup fresh or frozen berries
1 cup Cinnamon Crunch Granola
Method:
Chocolate Chia Pudding
In a food processor or high-powered blender, grind the chia seeds to a coarse powder. Add the dates, cacao powder, plant milk and vanilla extract, and blend for 1 minute, or until all ingredients are thoroughly homogenised.
Pour into serving dishes or glasses and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. It will thicken more with extra chilling.
Parfait
Once the chocolate chia pudding has set, spoon the plant yoghurt over the top of the pudding, dividing evenly between the serving dishes, and sprinkle the berries on top. Finally, top with granola and serve immediately.
