A while back, my awesome mother-in-law (MIL) asked me to create a healthy chocolate chia pudding recipe. My MIL loves that my recipes are the easiest out there, and this Keto Chocolate Chia Pudding is as simple as can be. With 6 ingredients total –chia seeds, cacao powder, coconut milk, vanilla stevia, water, and salt– you can whip this up in a couple of minutes.
Keto Chocolate Chia Pudding
In this recipe, I use stevia rather than maple syrup or honey as I am following a low-carb, high-fat (LCHF) Keto Diet. I’ve been eating this way since 2014, and it feels like another piece of the health puzzle is now in place for me.

Low-Carb Chocolate Chia Pudding
If you’re not a fan of stevia feel free to use maple syrup or honey to sweeten this healthy dessert. I haven’t tried it so I’m not sure how much sweetener you’d need in place of stevia. It would also depend on how much of a sweet tooth you have. I would guess a tablespoon or two would suffice.
Easy Keto Chocolate Pudding Recipe
For this recipe, it’s important to blend the coconut milk in a high-powered blender. This way you’ll have a smooth and creamy pudding, rather than one with little lumps of coconut milk in it. If you’re not a chocolate lover try my regular Chia Pudding recipe.
