Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups coconut milk full-fat or light
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh mango diced
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut for topping
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flakes toasted, optional

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together coconut milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  2. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping of chia seeds.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
  4. Dice fresh mango into small cubes. Reserve some for topping and set aside.
  5. When ready to serve, stir the chia pudding and divide half of it among 4 serving glasses or jars.
  6. Add a layer of diced mango to each glass, then top with remaining chia pudding.
  7. Top each serving with remaining fresh mango, shredded coconut, and toasted coconut flakes if desired. Serve chilled.

Notes

For best results, whisk the chia mixture after the first 5 minutes to prevent clumping. The pudding will keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can substitute frozen mango for fresh - just thaw and drain excess liquid before using.
