How Do You Make My Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Chia Seed Pudding Recipe?
Step 1. Make Your Chia Seed Pudding
Combine milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a jar. Stir it with a fork and allow it to sit and soak for about 5 minutes.
Stir it again with a fork to break up any clumps of chia seeds. Cover with a lid and store in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight

Step 3. Prep the Banana
Peel and slice a banana into .5″ chunks..
Step 4. Prep the Granola
Make my delicious Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Granola at least one hour before layering this pudding so it has time to cool.
Step 5. Layer the Pudding
Spoon 1/2 cup of chia seed pudding into your glass. Add a layer of chopped bananas. Add a layer of natural, unsweetened creamy, or crunchy peanut butter. Pour in a layer of honey greek yogurt. Spread a layer of chocolate chip peanut butter granola. Top with roasted peanuts and more banana chunks to taste.
