If you are looking for a dairy-free dessert even your kids will love, well lucky you! I have a perfect recipe. Vanilla Cinnamon Chia Pudding - Vegan and Dairy Free Dessert. Kids and adults alike will love this tasty treat!
Let's talk about being dairy free, shall we? There are people who follow a dairy-free lifestyle because of lactose intolerance/sensitivities, allergies, or because they are vegan. Others, like me, occasionally enjoy many of the dairy-free options that are available today. Almond milk, hemp milk, rice milk, soy milk, coconut milk...the list goes on and on! Because of the multitude of options available, being dairy-free is easier than ever.
This recipe uses pre-sweetened vanilla almond milk which is widely available and delicious. Chia seeds, are little tiny seeds rich in nutrition and packed with healthy fats, protein and fiber. When placed in any liquid, they turn a gelatinous texture which makes this dairy-free pudding mimic its traditional dairy-full pudding friends.
But what if only one person in your house is dairy free? No problem with this delicious dessert. A crowd pleaser for the whole family!
