This Peanut Butter Chia Pudding is a creamy, keto-friendly dessert or breakfast option that combines the rich flavor of peanut butter with the nutritional benefits of chia seeds.

Ingredients

Pudding Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cups almond milk
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (no added sugar)*
  • 2 tablespoons powdered peanut butter*
  • ¼ cup Swerve sweetener*

Berry (Jelly) Sauce (Optional)

  • 1 cup frozen berries (or fresh)
  • 3 tablespoons Swerve sweetener
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, powdered peanut butter, Swerve sweetener, and almond milk until fully incorporated and smooth.
  2. Add Chia Seeds: Stir in the chia seeds thoroughly ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture to prevent clumping.
  3. Refrigerate Pudding: Spoon the mixture evenly into 3 small containers or jelly jars. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the chia seeds to swell and create a pudding-like texture. For a smoother consistency, stir once or twice during chilling if desired.
  4. Prepare Berry Sauce (Optional): In a small saucepan, combine the berries, Swerve sweetener, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the berries break down and the sauce thickens, about 5-10 minutes. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the berries for a chunkier texture or leave as is for a rustic sauce.
  5. Cool Berry Sauce: Remove the sauce from heat and let it cool completely before using. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  6. Serve: When ready to eat, enjoy the peanut butter chia pudding as is or topped with the cooled berry sauce for a delicious PB&J flavor combination. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in airtight containers.

Notes

  • The recipe uses Aldi Simply Nature peanut butter and powdered peanut butter, both low in carbs, but feel free to use any no-sugar-added peanut butter and powdered peanut butter.
  • Swerve sweetener is used here as a keto-friendly sugar substitute, but any preferred keto sweetener may be substituted.
  • You can enhance this pudding by adding protein powder, cocoa powder, keto-friendly chocolate chips, or different flavors such as banana protein powder for variety and additional protein.
  • Stir pudding during refrigeration if seeds clump to ensure even texture.
  • The berry sauce is optional but provides a delightful sugar-free alternative to classic jelly for that peanut butter and jelly experience.
