I don’t know why but sometimes I crave PB & J on white bread. I guess it’s a memory from childhood or the fact that it’s just sweet on sweet on sweet. However I can’t eat that anymore as it just has too much sugar. So I find other concoctions like this low carb peanut butter chia pudding with jelly to satisfy my pb & j craving. It’s fantastic! It’s smooth, creamy and filling and the perfect healthy low carb snack!

Healthy Benefits Of Chia Seeds

I like chia seeds because of their cool ability to soak up liquid and make a gel like substance perfect for things like this pudding! They are also very filling and great for a low carb snack or to put in smoothies. For more information about the benefits of chia seeds check out this article. Chia seeds are:

• loaded with antioxidants
• low calorie and low carb (1 oz has 138 calories and 2g net carbs)

Low Carb Peanut Butter Chia Pudding With Jelly Ingredients

The ingredients for this low carb snack are chia seeds, peanut butter powder, peanut butter, almond milk, Swerve sweetener and berries.  All but the Swerve I bought at Aldi.

You want to first make the peanut butter chia pudding with the chia seeds, almond milk and peanut butter products. And then make the jelly with the berries and Swerve.

Making Peanut Butter Chia Pudding

In a large bowl, whisk the peanut butter, peanut butter powder, Swerve sweetener and almond milk. Once you get that well incorporated, add in the chia seeds and mix well. Spoon into two jars and refrigerate for an hour or two. You might want to mix it up after an hour or so if the seeds get clumpy. Or just mix it really well before you add the jelly. 

Making The Low Carb Jelly

This is very easy. I used use both raspberries and blackberries because they are both very low carbs. Just add them to a small pan with a tablespoon or two of water and the Swerve sweetener. Let that cook down until it thickens and then spoon on the peanut butter chia seed pudding.

 

This peanut butter chia pudding recipe makes three servings but I actually got two servings out of each. It’s very filling for a snack. I used some 8 oz jars like this but if you want you can make one big batch and make the jelly separately and just add when needed. Then nutritional information for 1 full jar is:

151 cals/ 9.9g fat/ 11.6g carbs/ 7.6g fiber/ 4.8g protein = 4.0g net carbs
