Description
Basil seeds are having a moment, and for good reason! They contain more fiber than chia seeds, absorb liquid faster, and create an incredibly thick, creamy pudding texture without any cooking. This chocolate basil seed pudding recipe is naturally sweetened, dairy-free, and gluten-free – it’s one of the easiest high-fiber desserts or breakfasts you can make. Just stir, refrigerate, and top with your favorites. Ready in as little as 15 minutes!
