What’s A Keto Chia Pudding?

A Keto Chia Seed Pudding is the low-carb version of the classic chia pudding, making it a keto-friendly and healthy breakfast.

One hundred grams of chia seeds contains 42 grams of carbs, of which a whopping 34 grams are fiber.

As fiber doesn’t count On a low-carb diet, the number of net carbs in chia seeds is very low, about 8 grams per 100 grams.

How To Make Keto Chia Pudding

Keto Chia Seed Pudding is an easy breakfast recipe made with only 3 basic ingredients.

Let me tell you more about this below.

Ingredients

• Chia Seeds – you can use white chia seeds or black chia seeds, both work. There’s no nutritional difference between them. It’s only aesthetic preference. If you don’t like black grey lumps, choose the white one.
• Unsweetened Almond Milk. Almond Milk doesn’t contain lactose, the natural sugar occurring in milk. Therefore it’s the best option to avoid carbs and sugar in your pudding.
• Sugar-free Crystal Sweetener. There are many keto-friendly sweetener options like a blend of Monk fruit Stevia or a blend of erythritol stevia. Alternatively, you can also use stevia drops. However, pure stevia must be used in a smaller amount of 2-4 drops, as it’s highly concentrated and adds bitterness.

Flavoring Chia Pudding

I absolutely adore pudding with chia! Earlier in the year, I shared with you my ground chia seed chocolate pudding recipe, a delicious creamy low-carb breakfast pudding with no lumps.

It took me some time to appreciate the texture of soaked chia seed, but now that I do, I created 4 amazing pudding flavors that I am sharing with you today.

Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding

Vanilla is the most classic flavor, and the fastest to prepare too, as I am using unsweetened vanilla almond milk, which means you need only 3 ingredients to make this flavor.

Their Vanilla almond milk has no sugar, a delicious vanilla flavor, and a creamy texture. I like this milk option as it avoids the use of vanilla essence that often contains alcohol.

Alcohol doesn’t evaporate in no-bake recipes and has a weird flavor, plus it’s not good for your health either.

I love to top up my vanilla pudding with peanut butter, chopped sugar-free dark chocolate, and fresh raspberries.

Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding

I am a chocolate lover. If you are one, too, you will love this chocolate chia seed pudding with almond milk.

It’s creamy, and it has the perfect, sweet chocolate flavor you’re expecting using only unsweetened cocoa powder.

I love to top up my chocolate chia seed pudding with chopped sugar-free chocolate or 85% cocoa dark chocolate and sliced almonds.

Almond Joy

I am sure there are many almond joy lovers around here! One reason I created this recipe flavor is that I have been a lover of almond joy bars in the past.

Obviously, since I don’t eat sugar anymore, I don’t eat those bars.

As a result, I love to create recipes that remind me of the flavor of my favorite food, like this pudding.

This almond joy pudding has all the flavors of coconut, almond, and chocolate you expect.

I love to top up my almond joy pudding with slivered almonds, sugar-free chocolate chips, and unsweetened shredded coconut.

Coconut Lime

On the other hand, I also love fresh tropical flavors for breakfast.

So this coconut lime pudding is my option for summer.

I love to top up the coconut lime pudding with lime zest and unsweetened coconut. I hope you guys enjoy all these delicious flavors.
