This Keto Vanilla Almond Chia Breakfast Pudding is a creamy and nutritious start to your day. Packed with fiber and healthy fats, this pudding will keep you full and energized without the carbs.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, and heavy cream.
Add the vanilla extract, erythritol, almond extract, and a pinch of salt to the bowl. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until well combined.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, until the pudding has thickened and the chia seeds have fully absorbed the liquid.
Once set, give the chia pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can thin it with a little more almond milk.
Serve the pudding into bowls and top with optional sliced almonds and coconut flakes for added texture and flavor.
Notes
The pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.Feel free to adjust the sweetness to taste, and experiment with different keto-friendly sweeteners if desired.For a nut-free version, substitute almond milk with coconut milk and omit the almond extract.
