Banana, Coconut and Rose Chia Pudding

I’ve been exploring several cold breakfast recipes while yearning for warmer weather and this one is going to be a staple during the spring and summer months. My secret to not let the cold temperatures get the best of you – make a list of things you would do when its warm outside, like eating a bowl of cold chia pudding infused with exotic tropical flavors! 

If you’ve been following me on Instagram you probably caught a glimpse of the flavor testing that went behind the chia pudding few weeks ago. These were the flavors I tested and they were all pretty awesome but I love me some dried rose petals!

• Cold Brew Mocha – made with chia seeds, cold brew coffee concentrate, cacao almond-cashew milk and date syrup.
• Masala Chai – chia seeds, chai spice, ground cashews, almond-cashew milk and date syrup
• Pistachio and Nutmeg – chia seeds, ground pistachios, nutmeg, almond-cashew milk and maple syrup 
• Banana, rose and Coconut – chia seeds, almond-cashew milk, bananas, cardamon and rose water 

Chia seeds are so versatile, they are great add-on’s to iced beverages, baked goods, granola and oatmeal. The best thing about Chia Pudding is that I don’t need to eat too much of it to feel full. Throw some fruit in there and its the perfect way to satisfy the sugar cravings.

For this recipe I used cashews, freeze dried bananas (you can use fresh bananas), ground cardamom, dried coconut flakes, rose water and dried rose petals.

Soak cashews in filtered water for 2-4 hours (this is optional but preferred), then blend them in a food processor with water and banana slices. Add this to the chia seeds with coconut, rose water and ground cardamom. Refrigerate overnight for 6-8 hours.

Serve with your favorite toppings, I used fresh bananas, dried coconut and rose petals. So good you guys!
