Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Need more ideas for chia pudding recipes? If you’ve ever enjoyed Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey ice cream, you’ll definitely enjoy this decadent yet healthy chunky monkey chia pudding. Made with the same nostalgic flavors, it's creamy, chocolatey, and full of healthful goodness.

Ingredients for Chunky Monkey Chia Seed Pudding:

  • Non-Dairy Milk: I like to use almond milk, but feel free to use the milk of your choice.
  • Bananas: this is the base flavor for this recipe. You’ll use one banana for flavoring and a half banana for topping.
  • Chia Seeds: these are packed with fiber and omega-3s and are a great way to start the day.
  • Cacao Nibs: to add the chocolate flavor. I like to add these into my chia pudding before it sets in the fridge to give them time to soften a bit. Aside from being delicious, cacao nibs are a great source of antioxidants.
  • Maple Syrup: for added sweetness. 
  • Walnuts: for a delicious nutty crunch.
