Mango Chia Pudding
Description
The pudding base is made by mixing chia seeds into coconut milk along with maple syrup and optional vanilla. The chia seeds swell and absorb liquid over at least one hour in the fridge, creating a thick, gelled texture that resembles pudding. Meanwhile, fresh or canned ripe mango is puréed to provide a sweet, vibrant layer.
Serving combines the chilled chia pudding and mango purée in jars or glasses, topped with chopped mango, coconut flakes, slivered almonds, granola, and berries. These toppings add crunch and additional fresh flavors, complementing the smooth pudding.
This dessert is suited for warm weather or as a light, nourishing option any time of day. It relies on simple natural ingredients and offers the ability to customize sweetness and toppings to taste.
