Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp (18 g / 0.63 oz) roasted pepitas
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp (15 g / 0.53 oz) chopped almonds
  • 1 tbsp (10 g / 0.35 oz) chia seeds
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) water
  • 1/4 cup (35 g / 1.23 oz) fresh blueberries, for topping
  • For a touch of sweetness, stir in a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey after cooking.
  • For an even richer, more decadent pudding, use all full-fat coconut milk instead of the water/coconut milk combination.
  • Boost the flavor by adding a 1/4 teaspoon (20 ml / 0.7 fl oz) of vanilla extract and a pinch of cinnamon to the pot before cooking.
  • This pudding is also delicious cold! Prepare it ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a small blender or spice grinder, pulse the roasted pepitas and chopped almonds into a coarse meal. This step is key for a creamy texture.
  3. Add the ground pepita-almond mixture, chia seeds, coconut milk, and water directly into the inner pot of your pressure cooker.
  4. Stir everything together until well combined.
  5. Secure the lid, set the steam valve to 'Sealing,' and select the 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' function.
  6. Set the timer for 5 minutes at high pressure.
  7. Once the cooking cycle is complete, carefully perform a quick release of the pressure by moving the steam valve to 'Venting.'
  8. When the pin drops, it's safe to open the lid.
  9. Give the pudding a final stir, divide between two bowls, and top with fresh blueberries before serving warm.
