Mint & chocolate are the perfect combination for a treat! As a fan of chia seeds, I've been trying different sorts of flavours and this time I'd like to share a mint & chocolate chip version of chia pudding.

I made it with fresh mint but you can use natural mint extract instead. It's not too sweet so you won't feel guilty if you have it for breakfast. Also try:

Ingredients (makes 1 serving)

4 tbsp whole chia seeds (32 g/ 1.1 oz)
¹/₄ cup coconut milk or heavy whipping cream (60 ml/ 2 fl oz)
¹/₂ cup water or unsweetened almond milk (120 ml/ 4 fl oz)
few fresh mint leaves or ¹/₂ tsp mint extract
1 tbsp powdered Erythritol or Swerve (10 g/ 0.4 oz) or liquid stevia to taste
2 tbsp dark chocolate chips (15 g/ 0.5 oz) - I used chopped 85% chocolate
Optional: Top with whipped cream or creamed coconut milk

Instructions

Place the mint leaves, coconut milk (or cream) and water into a blender and pulse until smooth. If using mint extract, you can skip this step.
Mix the chia seeds with the coconut milk mixture and add Erythritol.
Add a few drops of stevia and mix well. If you prefer a smoother texture, use ground chia seeds (note that ground chia seeds may taste bitter). Let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes, ideally overnight in the fridge.
Just before serving, roughly chop the dark chocolate and mix it in the chia pudding. Don't leave the chocolate in the pudding overnight or it will get soft and will lose its flavour.
Optionally, top with a dollop of whipped cream or coconut milk and serve. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

What a great recipe! I am going to try that tonight. I'm just now starting my low carb lifestyle and finally got in ketosis after a 21 day sugar detox!
