Ingredients
For the Chia Pudding:
- 4 tablespoon(s) chia seeds
- 1 cup(s) plant-based milk (such as oat or soy)
- 2 teaspoon(s) maple syrup
- 2 teaspoon(s) matcha powder (green tea powder)
For the Layers:
- 2 cup(s) plain or vanilla vegan yogurt
- 2 cup(s) fresh or frozen mango diced
- 4 tablespoon(s) chia jam or jam of your choice
Instructions
- In a bowl or jar, combine chia seeds, plant-based milk, maple syrup, and matcha powder. Mix well and refrigerate overnight to thicken.
- When ready to serve, layer the matcha chia pudding with the vegan yogurt and diced mango into two glasses or bowls. Top each serving with your choice of jam. Serve chilled.
Notes
If you want to substitute matcha powder, here are a few options:
- Cocoa Powder: For a different flavor profile, cocoa powder can be used. It will give a chocolatey twist instead of a green tea flavor. Use 1-2 teaspoons, depending on how strong you want the chocolate flavor.
- Vanilla Extract: If you prefer a more neutral flavor, you can use vanilla extract. Use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon, though it won’t provide the color or flavor profile of matcha.
