Servings 1

Ingredients

1/2 cup coconut or almond milk
1/4 cup grated carrots
2 tablespoons chia seeds
2 tablespoons walnuts pieces
2 dates finely chopped or a tablespoon of raisins
1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup – adjusted to your taste
1 scoop protein or collagen peptides powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings Optional

Dollop of yogurt
Sliced banana
Grated carrot
Chopped dates
Chopped walnuts
Drizzle nut butter

Instructions

Add all ingredients (minus toppings) to a jar and stir together to combine. The dried spices tend to float on top of the milk, keep whisking to dissolve them as much as you can.
Set the chia pudding aside on the benchtop for the next 10 minutes, and every 2-3 minutes, stir to make sure the spices mix into the milk and the chia seeds don't form lumps.
Tighten lid and place chia pudding in the fridge to set, at least 2 hours (or overnight).
The next day, stir again for a minute to combine the spices that might have risen to the top to the rest of the pudding.
If the mixture seems a little thick, simply add some more milk until it’s the right consistency for you.
Top with desired toppings to serve.
