Ingredients

Chia Pudding

  • 2 ripe large peaches, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or 2 tbsp brown sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • Juice and zest of half a lemon
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plain plant-based yogurt
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened soy milk or pea milk
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup chia seeds

Cobbler Crumb

  • 3 tbsp gluten-free rolled oats
  • 3 tbsp almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 3 soft medjool dates
  • Pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Caramelize the Peaches: Heat a sauté pan over medium-low heat and add the thinly sliced peaches, brown sugar or maple syrup, vanilla bean paste, lemon zest and juice, ground cardamom, and a pinch of kosher salt. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and the juices thicken slightly to create a syrupy peach mixture.
  2. Blend Peach Milk: Take about one cup of the cooked peach mixture and add it to a blender along with the unsweetened plant-based yogurt, soy or pea milk, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy, creating the flavored milk base for the pudding.
  3. Combine Chia Seeds: Pour the blended peach milk into a resealable container. Stir in the chia seeds thoroughly to ensure they are evenly dispersed. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes, then stir again carefully to break up any chia seed clumps. Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow the pudding to thicken and gel.
  4. Prepare Cobbler Crumb: In a mini food processor, pulse the gluten-free rolled oats on high until they form a chunky flour texture. Add the almond flour, medjool dates, vanilla bean paste, and a generous pinch of kosher salt. Pulse again until the mixture forms a fine, crumbly texture suitable for sprinkling over the pudding.
  5. Serve: Spoon the chilled chia pudding into serving glasses or bowls. Pinch the crumble topping with your fingers to create larger clumps, then generously sprinkle the crumble on top of each serving. Optionally, add extra fresh or cooked peaches for more peach flavor. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Avoid large clumps by stirring the chia seeds mixture again after the initial 10 minutes before refrigerating overnight.
  • For extra peach flavor, serve with additional fresh or extra cooked peaches on top.
  • Adjust sweetness by modifying the amount of maple syrup or brown sugar based on the natural sweetness of your peaches.
