The ingredients for Creamy Chia pudding (cookie and Kate) are:

4 tbsp chia seeds
6 date Dates
0.65 cup, halves and whole Cashew Nuts, dry roasted (salt added)
0.5 tsp Cinnamon, ground
0.5 tsp Vanilla Extract
1.5 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap

Here is how you make Creamy Chia pudding (cookie and Kate):

In a liquid measuring cup, combine the water and chia seeds. Set aside until the mixture forms a gel, about 20 minutes. If your dates aren't soft and plump, place them in a bowl and pour hot water over them. Set aside for up to 20 minutes, or until the chia seeds are ready. Drain. Pit the dates. In a blender, combine the pitted dates with the cashews, cinnamon, vanilla and salt. Pour in half or more of the chia gel (I prefer chia seeds in their blended state, so I poured in almost all of mine). Puree until smooth. If your pudding gets warm in the process, you'll need to chill it until cool. Serve individual portions of pudding with any remaining chia gel swirled in. Top with any garnishes you'd like. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.Serving Size: 1Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SMULDOWNEY.
