Why make this recipe?

Weight Watcher Friendly - This vanilla raspberry chia pudding is only 1 point for a half cup serving.

Since the new Weight Watchers plan is personalized you will have to input the ingredients used into your WW app to get your exact WW personal points.

Easy to Make - Preparing  healthy vanilla chia pudding requires only a handful simple ingredients and 0 minutes of cook time.

Ingredients needed and substitutions:

Unsweetened Almond Milk - We used Blue Diamond Almond Breeze unsweetened original for this recipe. You can use Coconut milk, any plant-based milk, cashew milk or even oat milk as an alternative if you do not like almond milk.

Chia Seeds - These tiny powerhouses of nutrition, have earned their place as a staple in many health-conscious diets. Derived from the Salvia hispanica plant native to Mexico, chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein, antioxidants, and various vitamins and minerals.

Despite their minuscule size, these seeds swell when soaked, creating a gel-like consistency, which aids in digestion and helps to keep you feeling full for longer periods.

Stevia - We used about 1 tablespoon of Stevia for this healthy breakfast treat. You can swap with powdered erythritol or even a splash of maple syrup.

How to Make Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding

1: In a bowl or large mason jar, mix the unsweetened almond milk, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and powdered erythritol sweetener or stevia.

2: Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk to break up any clumps of chia seeds.

3: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight, stirring occasionally.

4: In another bowl or cup, mash the fresh raspberries with a muddler, fork or blender until smooth.

5: To assemble the chia seed pudding, layer the chia seed mixture and mashed raspberries in serving glasses or jars.

6: Sprinkle unsweetened shredded coconut on top for garnish.

7: Refrigerate the raspberry vanilla chia seed pudding until ready to serve.
