Strawberry Pudding Recipe with Chia Seeds

This strawberry pudding with chia seeds is the perfect dessert. It is delicious, healthy, and so easy to make! 

This pudding recipe is sweetened with maple syrup and vanilla extract. It is a great alternative for the sugar-filled puddings.

This recipe makes about four servings. I would even consider having a double serving and eating it for breakfast. It is that good!

3. Add the chia seeds and pulse gently, so that it is well distributed.

5. Serve chilled with fresh strawberries and/or coconut flakes.

Is Strawberry Pudding Healthy?

This recipe fits into a paleo nutrition plan. The paleo diet is all about a certain way of eating – whole unprocessed foods, leafy greens, fresh vegetables without chemicals, nuts, grass-fed meat, etc.

It also means no dairy or refined sugars. Pudding generally contains milk and sugar, so all we have to do is alter the ingredients  slightly and we have a delicious and healthy paleo pudding.
