Sweeten up your morning with this healthified caramel-apple
delight. Typical chia pudding is served plain, so we spiced this up with some cinnamon and caramelized apples and pecans. A delicious way to begin the day and use up some apples that you got while apple picking!
Caramel-Apple Chia Pudding
Ingredients:
1 tsp coconut oil
1/2 apple, chopped (approx 3/4 cups)
2 tsp coconut palm sugar
2 cups almond milk
4 Tbs white chia seeds (you can also use black)
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
20 pecans, halved or chopped (approx 1/4 cup)
2 tsp maple syrup
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat up coconut oil on medium heat. Add chopped apples and coconut palm sugar, stir it all up and cook for approx 1 minute until apples are soft and coated with melted sugar. Let cool.
2. In a mason jar or cup (preferably with a lid), pour in almond milk, chia seeds, sea salt, ground cinnamon, maple syrup, apples and pecans.
3. Close the lid and shake it all up. Place in fridge for at least 2 hours. Overnight is best, so make it at night and it will be ready for breakfast in the morning!
