I really like this Strawberry Chia Pudding. It’s brilliant and vibrant in coloration, bursting with berry taste, and naturally, large on vitamin.
Native strawberries are in season and it’s the right time to make this strawberry pudding. When these native berries hit the farmers’ markets and shops, we fill up. In fact, it’s a brief season, it’s exhausting to not fill up!
However this strawberry pudding can also be fantastic with store-bought berries that maybe aren’t as brilliant and juicy as you’d like. This recipe uplifts these lowly berries and now they style simply as vigorous as native strawberries… or at the least, fairly shut!
I created this recipe after I scored a deal on store-bought natural berries. We had greater than we might work by contemporary, so I made a decision to freeze some – and remodel the remaining berries into this pleasant pudding.
After which issues acquired higher!
I had positioned an order with Wilderness Poets, and with dragonfruit powder in my pantry determined so as to add a few tablespoons.
What coloration!
You need to use this dragonfruit powder in puddings, sauces, ice lotions, oatmeal, cookies, frosting, and extra! Attempt dipping my cocoa cookie dough balls within the powder (as beneath) – or add some to my vanilla frosting or Ninja vanilla ice cream. The chances!
Now, right here’s the factor… the dragonfruit powder isn’t important, however… as a result of it’s a complete fruit in powder type, it provides pure sweetness to the pudding. Coloration, sweetness, and extra dietary perks. You don’t want a lot both, only a tablespoon or 1/2 tablespoon will do.
However even in the event you don’t use the dragonfruit powder, the colour continues to be lovely – with the strawberries alone.
Subsequent, let’s speak concerning the chia. This isn’t a chia pudding per se, however does have some chia seed to assist thicken the combination. So I name it a chia pudding. However most chia puddings use a milk base. This one is pure fruit and fruit juice, to let the colours and flavors actually shine by!
You may serve this pudding straight up or over ice cream, or layer with non-dairy yogurts parfait-style. Another serving concepts? Attempt topping in your oatmeal, pancakes, or waffles!
