Ingredients
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup fresh berries
- 2 tablespoons shredded coconut
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the full-fat coconut milk and unsweetened almond milk. Stir well until they are completely mixed.
Step 2
Add the chia seeds to the milk mixture. Stir vigorously to ensure that the seeds are evenly distributed, preventing them from clumping together.
Step 3
Pour in the pure vanilla extract and maple syrup. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
Step 4
Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors of the pudding. Stir the mixture once more to ensure even distribution.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid. Place it in the refrigerator and allow it to set for at least 4 hours or overnight. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and expand, creating a pudding-like consistency.
Step 6
After the pudding has set, remove it from the refrigerator. Stir the mixture well to break up any clumps that may have formed.
Step 7
Spoon the pudding into serving bowls or jars. Top each serving with fresh berries and a sprinkle of shredded coconut for added flavor and texture before serving.
Step 8
The pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container.
