Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Chia Pudding – Gluten Free, Vegan

This Chocolate Peanut Butter and Banana Chia Pudding recipe is so delicious and takes about 5 minutes to prep! It’s gluten free, vegan, and makes a perfect healthy snack or breakfast!

Chia pudding still amazes me every time I make it!

It’s so crazy to me that these little seeds can make such an awesome and healthy pudding treat!

I was a little skeptical at first because I thought the texture would just be really seedy.

The texture actually reminds me so much of tapioca pudding which was one of my favorites growing up.

There are also so many different flavor combinations possible with chia pudding.

This Chocolate Peanut Butter & Banana Chia Pudding is currently at the top of my list of favorites, but I can’t wait to try other flavors.

I think something fruity is next on the list. The possibilities really are endless!

Chia pudding is also the perfect treat for breakfast or even dessert because chia seeds have a ton of health benefits!
