Chocolate Chia Pudding is a healthy treat that’s sugar free, vegan, and gluten free. Serve it with fruit for dessert, a snack, or even breakfast!

Chocolate Chia Pudding for two (vegan, gluten free, sugar free) is perfect for Valentine's Day or any day!

You may have noticed that I have a thing for chia pudding. I love all flavors and colors of this healthy treat: Green, Pumpkin Pie, Matcha Green Tea, and the list goes on and on!

And of course you can never go wrong with chocolate, am I right?

One of the reasons I love chia pudding so much is because it’s really versatile.

You can eat it morning, noon, and night!

And it’s incredibly easy to make.

All you need to do is stir chia seeds in your liquid of choice, then put it in the refrigerator to thicken. You can even make it the day before, and it will keep for a few days. Unless you’re like me and eat it all right away!

Chocolate Chia Pudding only requires four ingredients you may already have in your kitchen:

  1. Medjool dates
  2. Non-dairy milk
  3. Cocoa powder
  4. Chia seeds

That’s it!

Then you can top the pudding with whatever you like, such as fruit, chocolate chips or coconut whipped cream. I love mine with fresh raspberries or strawberries.

  14. So cute -and looks and sounds super healthy too! I’m one of those people who has a well-stocked pantry at all times, and my pantry is NEVER void of dates. I love finding recipes that use dates – I can’t seem to get enough of them. 🙂

  17. I always have chia seeds in the house because I often bake with them, but I’ve never tried chia pudding. Time to change that – this chocolate chia pudding looks delicious. I love that it’s worthy of dessert, but not guilt-inducing.

  25. I love the idea of using dates as sweetener and I feel dates are not used to the extent they could be used. How gorgeous the pudding looking and absolutely love your clicks. Topping it with fruits makes it colorful and attractive.

  26. I’ve seen chia pudding, but never really looked much into them, so I’m so glad I found this recipe. I love the idea of using the chia seeds instead of gelatin to make this pudding, and the combination of chocolate and dates sounds fab!

  27. I started making chia pudding when I went paleo a few years ago. I haven’t quite stayed true paleo but I do enjoy a 70/30 lifestyle. These chia puddings make such great desserts and breakfasts on the go! I usually add honey to mine but I definitely want to try the dates. I love them in my other desserts too so they will be perfect for this!
