Ingredients:
- 1 cup canned coconut milk (full fat or light)
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen mango chunks (plus extra for topping)
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Toasted coconut flakes (optional, for topping)
- Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions:
- Blend the Base:
In a blender, combine the coconut milk, mango chunks, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. - Add Chia Seeds:
Pour the blended mixture into a bowl or jar. Stir in the chia seeds, mixing thoroughly so they don’t clump together. - Let It Set:
Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Stir once or twice in the first hour to redistribute the seeds evenly. - Check Consistency:
After chilling, the pudding should be thick and creamy. If it’s too thick, stir in a splash of coconut milk. If too thin, let it chill a bit longer. - Serve:
Spoon into individual serving glasses or bowls. Top with additional mango chunks, toasted coconut flakes, and fresh mint if desired. - Enjoy:
Serve chilled for a refreshing, tropical treat perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a healthy snack!
