Instructions

Notes
*I suggest Jade Leaf matcha green tea powder. I buy it on Amazon.
To make the pudding set faster heat 1/2 cup milk in the microwave until it’s very warm, but not boiling. Stir in the chia seeds, allow to set at room temperature for 10 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and chill in fridge for 1 hour. I have only tried this method once, it worked well. 🙂
Keep in mind that this recipe does contain caffeine.
Prep time doesn’t reflect the amount of time needed for the pudding to chill.
