  • 1 1/2 cups Coconut Milk well shaken
  • 1/2 cup Milk dairy or plant-based
  • 1/2 cup Chia Seeds fresh
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Salt

  • 1/4 cup Mango diced
  • 2 tablespoons Toasted Coconut optional

Method
 

  1. Whisk coconut milk, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
  2. Stir in chia seeds thoroughly. Rest for 10 minutes, then stir again for an even, creamy texture.
  3. Divide the mixture into containers and cover tightly.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick and spoonable.
  5. Top with mango and toasted coconut before serving. Add a splash of milk if you prefer a softer consistency.

Notes

For a softer pudding, add extra milk before chilling. For a firmer texture, increase chia seeds slightly. Freeze plain portions for up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Add toppings after thawing for easier assembly. Customize with pineapple, berries, cocoa, cinnamon, or chopped nuts. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
