Ingredients

  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk (400ml)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 3 medjool dates (soaked in 1/4 cup warm water)
  • 3 tbsp cacao powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch sea salt
  • Optional: add 1 ripe banana for a chocolate banana pudding

Toppings (optional)

  • cacao nibs
  • chocolate chips
  • shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. Peel dates in half and remove and discard pits. Soak in 1/4 cup warm water for 5-10 minutes or until softened.

  2. Add all ingredients to blender, including dates WITH the soaking water.

  3. Blend on high until creamy well combined. Mixture will thicken rapidly in blender. Add up to 1/4 extra water if needed to aid blending or for a thinner pudding.

  4. Transfer to container or jar (such as a mason jar) and place in refrigerator to chill and continue to thicken slightly.

  5. Enjoy with toppings of choice!
