Top it with some coconut yogurt, fresh blackberries, and lemon zest and you got yourself a yummy chia pudding parfait! It’s the perfect healthy breakfast to meal prep ahead of time and is super easy to make. I love chia pudding because it packs in a lot of healthy fats, fiber, and protein to keep you fueled 🙌. This blackberry lemon chia pudding is naturally vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar free, and has the most yummy sweet and tart flavor! Recipe is below, so make sure to hit save! 💫

Ingredients:
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup canned coconut milk (well stirred)
1 lemon zested
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup

blackberry jam:
heaping 1/2 cup blackberries
1 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
1 tsp chia seeds

In a bowl, add all the ingredients for the chia pudding. Whisk until well combined. Place in the fridge for an hour. Then whisk again to break up any clumps. Put back in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.

When the chia pudding is done setting, make the blackberry jam. In a small pot, add the blackberries, water, and maple syrup. Stir and simmer, smashing the blackberries with the spatula as it cooks for about 5 min. Then add in the chia seeds. Stir until well combined and simmer for 2 min. Set aside.

Stir your chia pudding. Add a splash of any non-dairy milk if you want it thinner. Assemble your chia pudding by adding some of the blackberry jam to the bottom of a glass. Top with the lemon chia pudding. Then add some yogurt (I used coconut), fresh blackberries, and lemon zest on top. Enjoy!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Easter Eggs 🐣🍫

Sick of all the food dyes in Easter candy at the store 🙋🏻‍♀️? Make these super easy chocolate peanut butter Easter eggs at home instead! I used blue spirulina to get that pretty robin’s egg blue, but you can make them whatever color you like using natural food dyes. These chocolate peanut butter eggs are really so easy to make and taste SO much better than store bought 🤤. They are also completely vegan and gluten-free too. Recipe is below so make sure to hit save! 💫

IB: @crowded_kitchen (I knew I had to make my own after seeing her beautiful eggs! 🤩)

Ingredients:
1 cup natural peanut butter
3 Tbsp coconut flour
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (vegan)
2 tsp coconut oil
1/8 tsp blue spirulina
2 drops natural red food dye (mine is from beets)
cacao powder for topping, optional

Add the peanut butter, coconut flour, and maple syrup into a bowl. Mix until combined. Set aside for 5-10 minutes to thicken up. Shape into eggs and place on a parchment lined plate or baking sheet. Freeze for 20 minutes. Melt white chocolate chips with coconut oil in 30 second increments until melted, stirring in between each increment. Divide into two bowls or small jars and add spirulina to one and the natural red dye to another. Stir until you get your desired colors. Dip each egg into the chocolate and place back onto the baking sheet. Freeze to set. Then lightly sprinkle cacao powder on top of the eggs. Enjoy! Store in the fridge or freezer.

1 Tbsp baking powder

Add all ingredients into the blender except for the baking powder. Blend until smooth, but don’t over blend. Add the baking powder and blend for a few seconds until combined.

Heat the griddle or pan to medium . Spray with some avocado oil and scoop about 1/3-1/2 cup of batter onto the pan. Cook for a few minutes until it starts to brown on the bottom and flip. Cook until golden on both sides. Enjoy with maple syrup!
