Recipe- Healthy To Eat Peanut Butter And Jelly Pudding

Peanut butter and jelly chia pudding that tastes just like a PB&J sandwich! But I’ve made a few alterations. Instead of peanut butter I’m using almond butter and instead of jelly I’m using homemade blueberry puree. I’m also topping it with chopped pistachios – and I think you’re gonna love it!

It depends on how thick you’d like your chia pudding. I like mine quite thick so I usually let it sit overnight. But if you’d like a thinner consistency or if you’re just desperate to eat it, I’d say between 3-4 hours is best. Once it’s at the consistency you like, feel free to dig in.

Ingredients

1/2 cup chia seeds
2 cups cashew milk, almond milk or coconut milk
4 tbsp almond butter or peanut butter
1 pint blueberries, plus more for garnish
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
blackberries, for garnish
3 tbsp chopped pistachios, for garnish

Method

* Add the chia seeds and milk to a bowl and give it a stir. Let the chia seeds sit for 10-15 minutes, then give them another stir before placing in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or overnight.

* To make the blueberry puree, add one pint of blueberries and one tablespoon of honey to a small pot on medium heat.

* Cook for approximately 10 minutes, stirring frequently and using the back of a spoon to mash the blueberries up and break them down.

* Once you have a puree, transfer it to a storage container and chill it in the fridge.

* To assemble, add half of the chia pudding to a bowl. Top with two tablespoons of blueberry puree and two tablespoons of almond butter. Garnish with fresh berries and chopped pistachios.
