Hi Deryn,
I absolutely love peanut butter and chia seeds so this is going to be my breakfast tomorrow! I love how this recipe is a healthy treat that can easily replace dessert while having so many health benefits! I really appreciate how you have highlighted the benefits of chia seeds as it being hydrating, high in protein, a good source in calcium, keeps you full longer, and stabilizes blood sugar. I was speaking to a friend who is a nutritionist and she claims that all seeds are the most optimal when it is grounded into a powder form, would you recommend this for chia seeds or is it perfectly fine to eat them whole?
Stevia is also great alternative for sugar, although I haven’t been able to get past the after-taste that it leaves for me for the many years that I have been trying swap sugar for it! Would you recommend another natural sweetener for me?

Hi Rachel, you can use maple syrup, agave, coconut sugar or nectar or date paste to sweeten this. I think chia seeds are ok to eat whole, since they absorb all the liquid it’s different from eating say a whole flax seed. I eat them both ground and whole…I’m not 100% sure on that though.
AMEN for the classic flavor combo! I love chia seed pudding, and I’m 100% sure I would love this version!
Yum- Love chia pudding.
Yum! I was just thinking about switching up my breakfasts because I got a new blender that is professional grade. I will just have to use it to make this (take out the mixing hahaha)
Thanks for sharing!
