- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Shredded coconut or mango slices for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine coconut milk, chia seeds, maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
- Let the mixture sit for 5–10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight until thickened to a pudding-like consistency.
- While the chia pudding sets, blend the chopped mangoes into a smooth purée.
- Once the chia pudding is set, layer it in serving glasses with mango purée. Start with a layer of chia pudding, followed by mango purée, and repeat as desired.
- Top with shredded coconut or extra mango slices for garnish if desired.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use almond milk or other plant-based milks instead of coconut milk for a different flavor.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup or honey.
- For a smoother texture, blend the chia pudding before layering.
