Vanilla Chia Pudding

This raw pudding is similar to tapioca pudding. The chia seeds expand and release their gelatinous substance when soaked in a liquid. Serve pudding in small bowls topped with fresh raspberries, blueberries, or sliced fresh strawberries.

Ingredients
½ cups raw cashews
1½ cups water
¼ cups maple syrup
½ teaspoons raw vanilla powder
⅛ teaspoons sea salt
6 tablespoons chia seeds

I made this to change up my breakfast options. I hadn't made chai seed pudding in so long, but this variation was tasty. Love the cashew milk and the hint of vanilla. I need to put this into regular rotation since it makes for a good snack too.

I made two varieties of these for Easter brunch. Cashew milk and almond milk. Both delicious. Creamy and smooth. Be sure to shake well every few hours so it doesn’t clump up. If it does, just take a wire wisk or mixer to get rid of clumps.
