Healthy Chocolate Chia Pudding

Angela. I have been eating coconut chia pudding everyday since my New Year’s Resolutions. I think I have become a bit obsessed with chia in everything. This is a perfect PMS pudding. Great recipe!

Oh I SO needed this last night…when I was eating chocolate chips in bed lol

Loved this narrative :)

Just discovered you:) Love it!

I’m going to make this tonight, for dinner? Maybe.

I don’t know how I’d feel about the slimy chia seeds, but a whole bowl of chocolate seems perfect to me!

I probably would inhale this, and THEN a bag of chocolate chips, but at least I could say I tried my best to resist. And also got some nutrition in first! =)

I love chocolate chia pudding, but it usually just looks like goo, you make it look beautiful :D I love that you use some carob in it – I’m going to have to try that next time.

Thank you for this recipe! My hormones are doing a number on me today—I totally just made a batch and put it in the fridge to have for a snack later.

I’d love to try this! Havn’t had soaked chia seeds before, but it looks delicious. I usually have no issue with slimey foods haha. Your recipes are just the best, Angela :) Much love, from your English follower.

That looks like a much healthier alternative to the bag of dairy-free chocolate chips I DID inhale last week….. That and the vegan peppermint-dark chocolate bars I found on sale at Whole Foods. What is it about chocolate and PMS?!

It’s amazing how you can turn soaked chia seeds into a pudding I know I couldn’t resist. To bad I don’t have any chia seeds at the moment, I’d love to try the pudding immediately.

I would not be a fan of this due to the chia seeds, but boy oh boy, do I understand pms! I was pmsing soooo bad on saturday. My Mom asked what was wrong and I mumbled something through half-tears. She said, “what” and I said, “IF I HAVE TO F%@&IN REPEAT MYSELF…” Yaaa, I have never said that in front of my parents before. And then I just started sobbing…for no reason. And my Mom just came and hugged me. Ha. PMS really, really sucks.

I need this right now!! Hahah seriously looks amazing :D

Oh man, you made me yawn as I read your post! So crazy, the power of suggestion. This recipe may keep me from eating through a mason jar full of PC choco chips (did you know they are vegan and my favorite chocolate chip?)!
I’m sure many a husband will be thanking you today!

I always want to have a little piece of dark chocolate after dinner and this would fit the bill quite nicely. Looks lovely. Is there anything that could sub for the carob flour? Yum!

This sounds lovely! Healthy pudding makes me happy!

I must give this a try!

This looks like the PERFECT chocolate treat. It’s healthy, and a generous portion too. Can’t wait to try this :)

Chia seed puddings are the best..I am currently on a pumpkin pie pudding kick with added pumpkin, stevia, cinnamon and almond milk…so tasty! Definitely will try this one…soon…it’s approaching! :)

I love chia seeds and I’m always looking for new recipes incorporating them!

Yum!! This looks absolutely incredible.. oh I could make this right now :)

I have been using chia seeds and i like them. But when i have them in a recipe and i save some to eat later( a salad or smoothie)—-i guess the way they swell up w/ water gives me indigestion. This doesn’t happen when i eat it immediately–only when i eat it later. Does this happen to anyone else?

2 of my favorite things… chia seeds and chocolate! I’ve made a chocolate pudding with chia seeds before and it was good, but not excellent. However, this one looks fantastic, I will give it a go. Thanks!

The first 10 lines of this post define me EXACTLY right now. Tears, sore boobs, chocolate, cravings, chocolate, more chocolate, and wanting to eat everything in sight.

Thank you, Thank you for chia chocolate pudding. Tear.

Haha, I could definitely use some of this chia pudding today!

Hope the hormones settle down soon – for both of us. I can’t stop crying about everything. :-)

A big thank you from someone who needs a chocolate fix right now!

Just made this tonight, and I have to say I never would have thought that vegan chocolate pudding would be so great! Thanks for the recipe!

I love chia puddings! My favorite is with pumpkin!

Oh yeah, love me some chocolate chia pudding. Thanks for the great recipe Angela. I’m feeling a craving coming on and I don’t even have cramps or sore boobies. I just really really like chocolate. I’ll eat it in honor of your female issues, though, okay? Hmm, that probably sounded weirder than it was meant to. Sorry bout that :)

i literally laughed out loud when I read this!! you are too funny, i CRAVE chocolate like no other for at least a few days before that lovely time of the month. I made your similar pudding for thanksgiving dessert and it was soooo tasty!! I like the idea of banana chunks or mashed banana in it too. mmmmmm

This would have been perfect for me last weekend… I cried during a movie called Real Steal.. seriously? ugh. Looks yummy, I’ll have to try!

I’ve inhaled way too many {PMS-induced} bags of chocolate chips. Perhaps I should give this a try ;)

I am so in love with this recipe…must try! I will have to use a nut free milk…I have rice and soy milk which are sweetened…will have to play with the sweetner as I will not be able to buy the carob powder at the bulk barn…cross-contamination issues. How many servings does it make? Thanks.

I love your repair and recover chia pudding! It kind of looks like frogs eggs. :D Surprisingly that doesn’t gross me out enough to prevent me from eating it haha.

So does the soaked chia resemble, texture-wise, tapioca? I usually put it with my yogurt, but it only softens maybe 5 minutes before I inhale it…

OHMYGOSH that looks amazing! <3 <3 <3

I think you just saved me from inhaling a bag of chocolate chips.

Me and my waistline thank you.

That looks to die for! That’s it, I’m biting the bullet and buying into this chia seed hype. Where can I sign up?!

This looks delicious! Hope you don’t mind but I’m featuring your Cookie Dough Balls lll on my blog tomorrow morning!

This is DEFINITELY my kind of chocolate pudding. Any time of day kind of definitely :)

Hi
Did I read somewhere in one of your posts that you buy your almond milk and don’t bother making it? Every other blogger makes almond milk and raves about how good it tastes. I can’t seem to make a milk that my kids will drink and now I feel guilty buying and throwing out all that milk packaging. Ugh!

Yum!!!! I tried this tonight — so good!!

Since the PMSing just commenced, I think the choco chia pudding needs to do so as well :)

Looks really good. I love that it’s low in sugar but packs a chocolate punch. I’m going to have to pick up some chia seeds and give it a try. :)KT

This thing looks amazing! I’m so making it, it’s impossible to resist :)

Interesting Recipe. I’ve never tried making chia seed pudding but is it somewhat like tapioca pudding but more nutritious?

Hi, I love your blog, although am not a vegetarian. I live in Lagos, Nigerian, and not so sure what chia seeds are referred to here, google did not have anything on it, but I want to try them, so if you can suggest where you buy yours, in America, I have friend coming over next week whom I would like to ask to buy for me. thank you

Looks delicious! On my “must try” list for sure :-)
Thanks for all the great posts!

Reporting back on this recipe. I made it last night and within 2 hours or so, I had a yummy dessert! It’s amazing how the chia seeds plump up and absorb the almond milk and become somewhat like tapioca pearls, with some crunch. I’m a happy girl since the recipe was so yummy, healthy and I had all of the ingredients in my kitchen, except for the carob powder. I just used extra cocoa powder (Hershey’s Special Dark) and extra Agave Syrup (2 tbsp amber and 2 tbsp raw). In the print version of this recipe, it says you can add some rolled oats and I did that. Thank you!
