DESCRIPTION

This creamy banana chia pudding is an easy and nutritious snack that only takes 5 minutes to prep. Not only is it a breeze to prepare, but it’s also loaded with plant-based protein and wholesome ingredients. The combination of ripe bananas, chia seeds, and plant milk creates a creamy, naturally sweet treat that feels indulgent but is actually good for you. Feel free to customize it based on your mood or preferences.

INGREDIENTS
  

  • 1 whole banana ripped
  • 1 cup soy milk or preferred plant milk
  • 2 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup protein powder (unflavored or vanilla) optional

METHOD
 

  • Place soy milk, maple syrup, protein powder, salt, and cinnamon in a high speed blender. Blend till all ingredients are combined into a smoothie mixture.
  • Mash up mash up a ripped banana in a medium size bowl or container using a fork. Then add chia seeds to the mash banana.
  • Stir in the smoothie mixture to the mashed banana along with the chai seeds. Mix everything together and let it set for 30-40 minutes.
  • Next stir once again and give it another good mix. Then divide the pudding into smaller portion jars, or simply use same bowl or container. Cover the pudding and refrigerate for 6-8 hours.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings - banana slices, almond slices, shaved dark chocolate, a sprinkle of cinnamon powder.

NOTES

  • Adjust the Sweetness: I suggest tasting the mixture before chilling it, then add more maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter pudding.
  • Portion it Out: Divide the pudding into individual jars before refrigerating for easy grab-and-go snacks or breakfasts.
  • Chill Time: Let the pudding chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours, but overnight is best for a thicker consistency.
  • Texture Preference: If you prefer a smoother pudding, you can blend the chia seeds with the rest of the ingredients instead of stirring them in.
