Ingredients
Scale
Liquid Base
- 2 1/4 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk, divided
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon rosewater
Seeds and Nuts
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup roasted salted pistachios, plus extra for topping
Fruits and Garnish
- 1/2 cup raspberries, plus extra for topping
- Dried rosebuds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Grind Pistachios and Blend Raspberries: Place the roasted salted pistachios into a food processor and blend until they become very finely ground with a dust-like texture. Transfer them into a medium mixing bowl. Then add the raspberries along with 1/4 cup of the almond milk to the food processor and blend until smooth. Pour the raspberry mixture into the bowl with the ground pistachios.
- Mix the Liquid Ingredients and Chia Seeds: To the bowl containing pistachios and raspberries, add the remaining almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and rosewater. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined. Next, add the chia seeds and whisk again to ensure they are evenly incorporated into the mixture.
- Chill and Set the Pudding: Pour the combined mixture into a sealed container and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken, forming a creamy pudding texture.
- Assemble and Serve: When ready to enjoy, layer the chia pudding with extra raspberries and chopped pistachios. Top with additional raspberries, chopped pistachios, a drizzle of honey, and optionally garnish with dried rosebuds for an elegant finish.
Notes
- For a vegan option, substitute the honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Make sure to use unsweetened almond milk to control the sweetness level.
- The pudding texture improves the longer it sets, ideally overnight.
- Chia seeds absorb liquid and thicken, so stirring before serving may be helpful if separation occurs.
- Adjust the amount of rosewater according to taste, as it is a strong floral flavor.
