This smooth, succulent pudding is especially delicious with something sweet on top, such as raspberries, and something contrastingly crunchy, such as toasted, chopped nuts or granola.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups chilled vanilla almond milk
• 1 large, very ripe banana
• ¼ cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 6 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1 teaspoons culinary matcha powder
• Yogurt, plain or flavored (for layering, optional)
• Fresh fruit (for layering, optional)

Directions

1. Put all the ingredients into the blend and whirl until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.
2. Top with fresh berries, chopped toasted nuts, toasted coconut, granola, pumpkin seeds or whatever your heart desires.
3. You may also make this pudding into a layered parfait if you like. Spoon pudding into a serving glass, top with a layer of yogurt and fruit, top with more pudding, sprinkle with fruit and nuts and serve.
