Mango Coconut Chia Pudding Easy and Delicious Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- to taste toasted coconut flakes for topping
- to taste fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- Stir in the chia seeds until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
- Once set, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
- In serving glasses, layer the chia pudding and diced mango. Start with a layer of chia pudding, then add a layer of mango, and repeat until the glasses are filled.
- Top each serving with a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing touch.
💡 Chef's Notes
Serve the chia pudding in clear glass jars or bowls to showcase the beautiful layers of mango and pudding. Add extra slices of mango and a sprinkle of coconut flakes on top for an elegant finish.
