This chocolate banana chia pudding tastes sinfully rich, but it’s completely healthy. It costs $.88 per serving to make this healthy vegan dessert recipe.
Using a food processor or blender, mash the banana to a smooth consistency. Add the coconut milk, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract to the food processor and process until smooth.
Taste the mixture, and add maple syrup one teaspoon at a time if needed. You may not need any at all if the bananas are very ripe.
Place the chia seeds in a medium bowl. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture over the chia seeds and whisk. The pudding will start to thicken right away when you stir it, but for the best results, cover the bowl and let the pudding thicken in the fridge for a few hours before serving.
