    “Serves: 1 | Serving Size: 1/2 jar”

    Is this recipe one serving or two?

    I was thinking the same thing? Kind of confusing!

    I agree with the previous comments–the serving size is confusing. I made it for my wife and we wonder if the recipe might be for two servings perhaps?

    Does it matter which coconut milk is used — canned or carton (refrigerated)? Also, seems like a lot of calories for 1/2 serving…

    Hello, can the peanut powder be substituted with Peanut Butter? If so, what is the recommended amount?
    Thanks,
    Julie

    This definitely needs some clarification..
    3 tablespoon of chia seeds (3x15g) 192kcal
    1 teaspoon of maple syrup 12kcal
    1 teaspoon of vanilla extract 12kcal
    3 tablespoon of peanut powder (3x12g) 153kcal
    1/2 cup (75g) frozen raspberries 36kcal
    Total calories so far: 405
    Plus either:
    1 cup (240ml) unsweetened coconut ‘drink’ (carton) 48kcal
    Or
    1 cup (240ml) light coconut milk (tinned) 175kcal
    Giving a total of either 453kcal (1/2=226.5kcal) or 580kcal (1/2=290kcal)
    It just doesn’t add up whether all the ingredients is the serving size or half is the serving size… I’m confused..!

    According to the article, “It’s packed with 23 grams of fiber and 17 grams of protein PER SERVING..” But that’s misleading because the nutritional information for 1 serving, which is HALF a jar says:
    Nutrition (per serving): Dietary Fiber: 12g; Protein: 9g

    How can you claim 1 serving is 177 calories when Just one of the ingredients, 3
    Tbsp peanut butter is 240 calories. I entered all of the ingredients into the MyFitnessPal Recipe calculator and arrived at 630 calories. I made a way slimmed down version with 1 Tbsp PB, almond milk (30 cal) sugar free syrup ( 4cal) and it was still 310 cal without the raspberries. This is a high calorie pudding and not for losing weight

    This counts are way off on this, hence all the comments. The carb and fat count on that chia PB cup is incorrect. 1 cup coconut milk (as the recipe calls for) has approx 50 grams of fat not 8 as the article states. The carbs are also off and the picture is misleading the recipe calls for peanut butter powder not just peanut butter as pictured. Also the serving size is confusing, does that mean the recipe makes one jar and half is a serving?
