Yield 4
Prep Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/5 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 banana
  • Blueberries
  • Coconut whipped cream
  • Cinnamon

Instructions

Prepare the Chia Seed Mixture:

  • In three separate bowls, add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of almond milk into each bowl.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon of maple syrup to each bowl.
  • Now, the twist comes in! Choose your ombre design with spirulina:
  • For a subtle blue hue, add 1/8 teaspoon of spirulina to one bowl.
  • For a deeper blue color, add 1/2 teaspoon of spirulina to another bowl.
  • For an intense blue shade, add 1 teaspoon of spirulina to the third bowl.
  • Mix each bowl well to ensure the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  • Cover the bowls and refrigerate overnight or for at least 3-4 hours to allow the chia seeds to gel and flavors to meld.

Assemble the Blue Chia Pudding:

  • Once the chia seed mixture has set, it's time to assemble your pudding.
  • Start by layering the pudding from the darkest color to the lightest in serving glasses or bowls.
  • As you layer, sprinkle blueberries between each layer for added bursts of flavor and nutrition.

Finishing Touches:

  • Once you've layered all the pudding, top it off with slices of fresh banana.
  • For an extra touch, add dollops of coconut whipped cream on top.
  • Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon over the coconut whip for a fragrant and flavorful finish.
