Maple Coffee Chia Pudding

This no-stove pudding is as thick and pudding-y as tapioca — but it’s so much healthier for you. Instead of using starchy, carb-heavy tapioca pearls, we made it with chia seeds, which are full of fiber, protein, amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids. That’s right, chia pudding is basically a superfood.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups organic coffee, finely ground

1 3/4 cups filtered water

3/4 cup + 1/8 teaspoon L&B Organic Chia Seeds, divided

Directions

In a coffee maker, use the coffee and water to brew coffee, and then set aside to cool.
In a large glass bowl, combine the coffee, ¾ cup of the chia seeds, vanilla, ⅓ cup of maple syrup and half and half and stir until well combined. Cover the bowl and chill the pudding in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
Remove the pudding from the refrigerator, stir it, divide it between 6 small custard cups and chill overnight, uncovered.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, whip together the cream and 3 tablespoons maple syrup until soft white peaks form. Pipe or spoon the whipped cream onto the pudding cups.
