Easy steps to make Orange Macaroon Vegan Chia Seed Pudding
First and the foremost I love to squeeze out fresh orange juices. I don’t like the sour/pungent taste of store-bought orange juice.
Afterwards, I blended all the ingredients in the blender except chia seeds.
Lastly, I vigorously whipped up chia seeds in the blended liquid and let it rest in the refrigerator.
Thereafter, just before getting into the bed I whipped the pudding once so the chia seeds spreads nicely.
Again, I let it rest in the refrigerator for the rest of the night.
In the morning just before serving I vigorously whipped the pudding again and spooned it in the serving jars/bowls.
Then topped it with some fresh oranges and fresh coconuts.
Voila!!!!! My mornings have never been so delicious till now.
Therefore, I encourage you all to make this recipe and enjoy it. I am sure you will devour every bite of this lip-smacking vegan chia seed pudding.
This pudding is a good source of vitamin C plus protein. It provides sufficient calcium and vitamin D. it also helps to facilitate metabolism which is very important in a weight loss journey.
This pudding is like dessert for breakfast. The best part is that its guilt free and yet delightful to the taste buds. It is a perfect go to breakfast for busy mornings as well.
So, if you have oranges in your fridge/kitchen counter go ahead and whip up this recipe right now.

This looks so yummy and easy to make!
This looks delicious! Chia pudding is incredible, thanks for sharing!
I am definitely going to try this, but rather than orange extract can I sub that for an orange infused Olive oil?
Yes, Brandi you may switch to orange infused olive oil but be careful of the measurements so that the pudding is not bitter.
My mouth is watering at this recipe!!! I love chia seeds. I am going to have to try this one out!
Oh wow, I will definitely be trying this!! Chia seed pudding is one of my favorite breakfasts…I have it multiple times a week! Looking forward to switching it up with the orange!!
