• Net carbs per serving = 6.4 grams.
• *The quick chia pudding method: I learned this “water trick” years ago from my friend Geraldine @eatwithfingers and I hope you find it as helpful as I do!
• Sweetener: If you don’t mind whether the dessert is keto-friendly or not, you can use another sweetener to sweeten it.
• Peanut Butter: Feel free to use any other nut butter (e.g. almond butter, cashew butter) or sunflower seed oil in place of peanut butter.
• Coconut milk: I recommend using canned coconut milk. If you want to use almond milk or any other milk, the taste of chia pudding will not be rich and creamy.
