Chocolate Chia Pudding (Egg-free Dairy-Free GAPS)

GAPS Chocolate Chia Pudding Egg Free

This chocolate chia pudding is surprisingly light and flavorful, thanks to the pureed apple and dates rather than heavy coconut milk as the base.  Chia seeds are fun and super easy to work with – they thicken by simply absorbing the liquid in a recipe.  This chocolate chia pudding is egg-free and dairy-free and is a favorite even among those without dietary limitations.

We show the pudding topped with homemade coconut milk whipped cream, a family favorite that is also egg free and dairy free.

Lighter than pudding made with coconut milk, this is still dairy free. It's naturally sweetened by not only the honey, but the dates and apple as well.  Chia gels without eggs, and it also makes this a no-cook pudding. We topped it with coconut whipped cream. Enjoy this rich chocolate recipe any time!

    Hi Cara!

    I didn’t know chia seeds were GAPS legal. This is great, as I have seen other recipes that I wanted to substitute ground seeds for other non-GAPS ingredient.

    Thanks for the recipe and the heads up. I use your recipes and really am grateful that you share these without charge. It is so very helpful.

    Sincerely,
    Lisa Sherman
