Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (80 g) chia seeds
- 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup (about 150 g) fresh strawberries, sliced
- ½ cup (about 15 g) toasted unsweetened coconut flakes
- Optional toppings: sliced almonds, chia seed sprinkles, fresh mint leaves
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup (240 ml) of full-fat coconut milk, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
- Stir in ½ cup (80 g) of chia seeds thoroughly, ensuring no clumps remain.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into individual jars. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to thicken.
- While the pudding chills, heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add ½ cup (about 15 g) of unsweetened coconut flakes and toast, stirring frequently, until golden brown and fragrant (3-5 minutes).
- Wash and slice 1 cup (about 150 g) of fresh strawberries.
- Once pudding is creamy and thickened, stir well and spoon into serving bowls or glasses.
- Top with sliced strawberries and toasted coconut flakes.
- Add optional toppings like sliced almonds or fresh mint leaves if desired.
Notes
If pudding is too thick after chilling, stir in a splash of coconut milk before serving. Stir pudding once or twice during the first hour of chilling to prevent clumps. Toast coconut flakes carefully to avoid burning. Prep the night before for best results.
