Keto-Friendly Chia Seed Pudding Recipe
This Keto Chia Seed Pudding with Heavy Cream is a creamy, satisfying dessert that is both low in carbs and high in healthy fats. It’s sweet, smooth, and has a delightful texture thanks to the chia seeds expanding in the creamy mixture.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons low-carb sweetener (like erythritol or stevia, adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional toppings: berries, nuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Let it Set: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the mixture.
- Serve: Once the pudding is set, give it a good stir to break up any clumps. Serve chilled, topped with your choice of berries, nuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips.
