Chia Seed Pudding

Chia Seed Pudding is a delightful low-carb Korean-inspired dessert that combines the nutty flavor of chia seeds with the sweetness of coconut milk and a hint of matcha. This refreshing treat is perfect for those seeking a healthy yet indulgent dessert option.

Ingredients

• Chia seeds - 50 grams
• Coconut milk - 250 milliliters
• Matcha powder - 1 teaspoon
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• Sweetener (erythritol or stevia) - to taste
• Almonds (sliced) - 20 grams (for topping)
• Fresh berries (blueberries or strawberries) - 50 grams (for topping)

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, matcha powder, vanilla extract, and sweetener. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
2. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
