Ingredients

  • 3 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon matcha powder
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • ½ cup chia seeds
  • ¼ cup chopped macadamia nuts toasted
  • ½ cup chopped pineapple
  • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes

Instructions

  • Pour matcha powder into almond milk and whisk vigorously to combine (try to get as many chunks of the matcha out as possible.) Whisk in honey, then add chia seeds.
  • Let sit for 10 minutes, and then stir again, breaking up any large chunks of chia seeds. Place in refrigerator at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • In the morning, remove chia pudding from the refrigerator. Scoop into individual serving vessels and top with macadamia nuts, pineapple and coconut flakes.

Notes

  1. To make this recipe kid-friendly, simply omit the matcha powder.
  2. Prepare your chia pudding the night before you plan to enjoy it and just add the toppings the morning of!
  3. Feel free to sub in any sort of alternative milk for the almond milk. Coconut milk would be amazing in this!
