Ingredients

  • Zest of a large lemon or 2 small lemons
  • Juice of 2 large lemons
  • 13.5 or 15 oz can full fat coconut milk about 1.5 cups
  • 1/4 cup water optional
  • 3 tbsp or more sweetener I use raw sugar
  • A good pinch of salt
  • 1/4 tsp or more turmeric
  • 3 tbsp or more chia seeds 5 to 6 tbsp for well set pudding

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Blend the lemon zest, juice, coconut milk, water, sweetener, salt and turmeric until well combined. Add chia seeds and pulse once or twice to distribute the chia seeds well.
  2. Taste and adjust sweet and tang. Add more lemon juice or zest to taste and mix/blend in.
  3. Pour the mixture into glasses. Chill overnight in the refrigerator. Stir once after an hour or so to distribute the chia seeds if needed.
  4. Garnish with whipped coconut cream and lemon zest and serve.

Notes

  • Variation: Use lime juice and zest for Lime pudding.  Use a mix of full fat and lite coconut milk for a lower fat content. 
  • Tips:
  • For a more set pudding use 1 tbsp more chia seeds. Chia seeds take atleast overnight to hydrate and set the pudding. I like my pudding with less chia and more of the lemony coconut milk.
  • Trouble with the pudding not setting? Make sure to Use full fat coconut milk.  Reduce the lemon juice and add more zest for the lemon flavor to reduce overall liquid
