Ingredients
Scale
Peach Compote
- 2 ripe large peaches, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp maple syrup or 2 tbsp brown sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- Juice and zest of half a lemon
- Pinch of kosher salt
Chia Pudding
- 1/2 cup unsweetened plain plant-based yogurt
- 3/4 cup unsweetened soy milk or pea milk
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
Date Crumble Topping
- 3 tbsp gluten-free rolled oats
- 3 tbsp almond flour
- 3 soft medjool dates
- 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
- Pinch of kosher salt
Instructions
- Cook the Peach Compote: Heat a sauté pan over medium-low heat and add the sliced peaches, brown sugar (or maple syrup), vanilla bean paste, lemon zest and juice, cardamom, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine and cook for 8-10 minutes until the peaches soften and the juices thicken slightly, stirring occasionally.
- Blend the Peach Mixture: Take about one cup of the cooked peaches and transfer to a blender. Add the plant-based yogurt, soy or pea milk, and salt, then blend until smooth to create a creamy peach base.
- Prepare the Chia Pudding: Pour the blended peach mixture and remaining milk into a resealable container, then add the chia seeds. Stir thoroughly to combine and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir again to break up any clumps, cover, and refrigerate overnight to allow the pudding to thicken.
- Make the Date Crumble: In a mini food processor, pulse the rolled oats until they become a coarse, chunky flour. Add the almond flour, medjool dates, vanilla bean paste, and a generous pinch of salt, then pulse until a fine crumb topping forms.
- Assemble and Serve: Spoon the chia pudding into serving glasses or bowls. Pinch the crumble topping into larger clumps with your fingers and sprinkle generously over the pudding. Serve chilled and enjoy your peach cobbler chia pudding.
Notes
- You can substitute brown sugar with maple syrup for a vegan-friendly sweetener.
- Adjust the sweetness of the peach compote and pudding to your taste by varying the amount of sweetener used.
- To speed up chia pudding thickening, you can refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best for texture.
- Gluten-free oats and almond flour make this recipe suitable for gluten-sensitive diets.
- Use ripe, sweet peaches for optimal flavor; frozen peaches can be used if fresh are unavailable.
