Ingredients
For the matcha chia seed pudding:
- 1 cup any type of milk
- 1-2 tablespoons sweetener to taste; white/brown/alternative sugar, honey, syrup, agave, etc
- 1 teaspoons matcha powder sifted
- ¼ cup chia seeds
For the froggie design:
- ⅛ cup heavy cream
- ½ tablespoon powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon matcha powder sifted
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder sifted
Toppings:
- fruit, granola, coconut flakes, hemp seeds, cacao nibs, etc.
Instructions
For the matcha chia seed pudding:
- In a medium bowl, whisk sifted matcha powder, sweetener, and milk until combined.
- Stir in the chia seeds, then let sit for about 10 minutes. Whisk the mixture to get rid of any chia seed clumps.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and become thick.
For the froggie design:
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and powdered sugar until thickened and is a pipeable consistency.
- Remove a few tsp of whipped cream and fold in cocoa powder into it until combined. Transfer to piping bag. This will be for the frogs' eyes.
- Fold in matcha powder to the rest of the whipped cream. Transfer to piping bag.
Assembly:
- Scoop chia pudding into serving container. If you'd like, you can alternate layers of different toppings with the matcha chia seed pudding!
- Pipe frog design on top using the green and brown whipped cream.
- Sprinkle extra toppings and serve.
- Enjoy!
