Ingredients
  

  • 2 large overripe bananas
  • 2 cups non dairy milk such as unsweetened canned coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, cashew milk, or oat milk
  • 1-2 teaspoons cacao or cocoa powder
  • 6 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons coconut nectar maple syrup, or another plant-based sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

To Garnish

  • Cacao nibs
  • Raw coconut flakes coconut chips, or shredded coconut
  • Fresh banana slices

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, add bananas and mash well. Stir in non-dairy milk, cacao powder and chia seeds, mixing well.
  • Let set for about 30 minutes, and give a good stir. Repeat one more time, stirring again after 30 minutes. This step is an important step, as the seeds need to be stirred once or twice before completely gelling up and setting. If not stirred, the pudding mixture will be soupy.
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight.

Serve with banana slices or caramelized bananas, toasted coconut flakes and cacao nibs/shaved chocolate. Would also be great with a nut butter drizzle, a dollop of coconut whipped cream or another dairy free whipped topping!
