Salted caramel chia seed pudding

By Megan Lagerwey

Serves 2

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

100 g chia seeds
1 cup boiling water
13 pitted dry dates
½ t vanilla extract
2 T tahini
A pinch salt
1 t almond butter
1 t honey or maple syrup (optional)

Method

1. Soak the chia seeds in boiling water for 5 minutes. They should expand fully in the water. Stir so they all expand. You can add more water if some of the seeds stick to the bottom.

2. Meanwhile, place the dates, vanilla, tahini, salt and almond butter into a blender and blend until smooth. You will have to do this a few times to make sure the dates are broken down.

3. Spoon the chia seeds into your favourite bowls and top with the tahini-and-date mixture.
