How You’ll Make It
- Combine chia and cacao: Add the chia seeds and cacao powder to a mixing bowl or jar. Stir them together so the cacao coats the chia seeds—this helps reduce clumping once the liquid is added.
- Add the maple syrup: Pour in the maple syrup and stir until the mixture looks evenly moistened. It will be thick and pasty at this stage, which is normal.
- Add the cranberry juice: Slowly pour in the cranberry juice while whisking or stirring continuously. This begins to loosen the mixture and helps the cacao dissolve smoothly.
- Add the dairy-free milk: Pour in the dairy-free milk and whisk again until the pudding base is fully combined with no dry pockets of chia or cacao left.
- Let it rest, then stir again: Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir well again to break up early clumps.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours (or overnight) until thickened.
- Serve: Stir before serving and adjust sweetness if needed.
Flavor Tips
- For a deeper chocolate flavor, add an extra teaspoon of cacao.
- For extra creaminess, replace 2–3 tablespoons of the cranberry juice with more dairy-free milk.
- Add a splash of vanilla or a pinch of cinnamon for warmth.
