My idea of fun is taking a superfood and making dessert from it so that my family can have treats that I feel good about. This was the reason why I first developed my baking mixes and the reason why I always have guilt-free desserts in my kitchen. My husband had a white rice pudding phase and I had to figure out a way to satisfy this craving, so I swapped out the white rice for chia seeds, and he hasn’t asked for rice pudding since! Cashew butter gives this dessert a subtle warmth, but I’ve done this with peanut butter and it’s just as delicious!

Put the chia seeds aside in a large mixing bowl. Mix the rest of the ingredients together in a food processor. Then pour the mixture into the mixing bowl with the chia seeds and stir with a fork. Set aside and then stir again after 10 minutes.
Put in the refrigerator to set. The pudding will be firm after an hour but can be left to set overnight.
When ready to serve, sprinkle shredded coconut over each pudding and add a dollop of your favourite fruit jam.
