Amaretto & Peach Chia Seed Pudding

Yield: 4

Author: Emma Cerulli

Prep time: 15 MinInactive time: 35 MinTotal time: 50 Min

A healthy breakfast with an Italian twist.

Ingredients US Metric Both

• 1 1/2 cups (400 ml) vanilla almond milk
• 6 tablespoons black chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter, divided
• 2 peaches, small dice
• 2 tablespoons toasted sliced almonds, divided
• 4 mint sprigs (optional)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup and almond extract.
2. Let mixture stand for 5 minutes before evenly dividing between 4 small glasses. Let sit for 30 minutes in the fridge until set.
3. Once the mixture has set, spoon 1/2 tablespoon of almond butter to cover the surface of the pudding. Repeat for each portion.
4. Divide the diced peaches into each glass, sprinkle with toasted almonds and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.
5. Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.

Notes:

• If you prefer a looser pudding, adjust the quantity of almond milk after the pudding has set, to achieve

desired thickness.

• Warming the almond butter in the microwave for 20 - 30 seconds, will help to spread it more evenly.
• You may substitute the maple syrup with honey or agave syrup in equal measurements.
