Pecan Chia Pudding

Morsels of Life - Pecan Chia Pudding - A lightly sweetened chia pudding with a sticky pecan topping - perfect as a dessert and healthy enough for breakfast!

I wanted to try out some chia pudding, and we also had some cashew milk I wanted to use up, so I decided to make a chia pudding with cashew milk. We also had some pecans around, and I do like Pecan Pie, so why not make something similar? Sounds like a good idea to me! Just mix together most of the ingredients, place the mixture into your serving container, and spoon some of the sweet pecan mixture on top. We refrigerated and enjoyed these pecan pie chia puddings the next day to really let the chia seeds hydrate. Enjoy!

Do you prefer dairy milk or nut milks?

    1. I agree! I wasn't so sure before I tried it since chia seeds are healthy, and healthy desserts aren't usually the best. This pecan chia pudding was definitely one we enjoyed though - relatively healthy and not too sweet. :)

  2. This sounds delicious - we are intolerant to dairy milk and have tried various alternative milks over the years! Our current favourite is oat milk but I think hazelnut milk would be perfect in this. Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday.

  5. This looks absolutely delicious, and I love how healthy it is, CJ. I must admit, I prefer dairy milks, but I'd definitely enjoy nut milk in this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing and for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party. Take care and have a lovely week.

    1. Dairy milks definitely have a different flavor, but you could use it here too. Thanks for hosting weekly!
