Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 cups coconut milk canned or carton
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spoon
  • Measuring cups
  • Glass jars or containers for serving

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to blend all the ingredients smoothly.
  2. Sprinkle the chia seeds into the milk mixture. Stir to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
  3. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the seeds to start absorbing the liquid.
  4. After 5 minutes, stir the mixture again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
  5. Cover the bowl or transfer the pudding to glass jars. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  6. Once chilled, give the pudding a good stir before serving.
  7. Top your pudding with fresh fruits, nuts, or shredded coconut for added flavor.
