Flavour suggestions for chia seed pudding
I like the texture of chia seed pudding, and find it quite filling for the number of calories. However, the chia seeds have a flavour (slightly spearmint-ish) that doesn't go well with some other flavours. So I'm looking for some suggestions: What do you like to add to your chia-seed pudding?
My basic recipe is 1 part chia seeds by volume to 4 parts nut milk. Then shake every minute or so until firm.
I add a little bit of cocoa powder, and use a little coconut cream/milk to add to the flavor. I've never noticed the spearmint flavor, but I totally get that. I am one of those people who thinks cilantro tastes like soap, so definitely get it.

I have made "Almond Joy" chia seed pudding as well as Chocolate Cherry chia seed pudding. Both are my go to for something sweet. I use almond extract for the flavoring in the almond joy, but top with a bit of unsweetened coconut flakes and slivered almonds. The chocolate cherry one, I use a cherry extract to add the flavor and top with shaved sugar free lilys. When I have these, I tend to not get hungry at all. I have not noticed any spearmint flavor in my chiaseeds at all. Do you think yours are expired, maybe?
