This Healthy Ginger Peach Chia Seed Pudding is sweet and peachy with heartwarming, spicy notes from the ginger! Definitely unique, surprisingly addictive, absolutely delicious.
I’ve never been a huge fan of gingery foods (like Gingersnaps and certain Asian dinner dishes), but I appreciate the flavor it adds in certain applications. AKA, for me to like ginger, it needs to be paired with something super yummy and super sweet to offset that distinctive burn in the back of your throat.
And that thing is a PEACH.
Ginger and Peaches go so well together. When I searched for “Ginger Peach” into FoodGawker (may also be known as the greatest website of all time), A TON of delicious things popped up: pies, galettes, popsicles, ice creams, smoothies, sweet breads, sangrias, etc.
During my weekend madness that included over seven Chia Seed Pudding creations, I knew I had to make a Ginger Peach variation. And dang, I’m so glad I did!
This Healthy Ginger Peach Chia Seed Pudding is da bomb.
