Ingredients

1 cup coconut milk (canned for creaminess or carton for lighter option)

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey for a non-vegan option)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Fresh fruits for topping (mango, kiwi, strawberries, or berries)

Toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)

Mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut milk and almond milk until well combined. Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt, mixing thoroughly.

Add Chia Seeds: Sprinkle the chia seeds into the liquid mixture while stirring continuously to prevent clumping.

Set to Thicken: Once everything is well mixed, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, until the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency.

Stir Before Serving: After chilling, give the pudding a good stir to ensure the chia seeds are well distributed and the texture is even.

Serve: Spoon the chia pudding into serving bowls. Top with your choice of fresh fruits, toasted coconut flakes, and a sprig of mint for a touch of color and flavor.

Enjoy: Serve immediately or keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days for a quick and healthy treat throughout the week!
