Ingredients
Scale
- For the Chia Pudding:
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Apple Layer:
- 1 apple, peeled and diced
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- For the Crumble Topping:
- 2 tablespoons rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare the Chia Pudding: In a medium bowl or mason jar, whisk together almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight until thick.
- Make the Warm Apple Filling: In a small skillet over medium heat, add coconut oil and diced apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon and cook until apples soften. Add maple syrup and cook for another 2-3 minutes until lightly caramelized. Remove from heat and cool.
- Make the Crumble Topping: In a small bowl, mix oats, almond flour, cinnamon, maple syrup, and coconut oil until crumbly. Toast in a skillet over low heat for 2-3 minutes until golden and crisp. Let cool.
- Assemble Your Pudding: Spoon chia pudding into serving glasses. Layer the cinnamon apple filling over the pudding, followed by the oat crumble topping. Serve immediately or store in the fridge.
Notes
- Use any milk of your choice, such as coconut, oat, soy, or regular milk.
- Add an extra drizzle of maple syrup before serving if you prefer it sweeter.
- For best texture, keep the crumble topping separate until ready to eat.
