Ingredients
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey to taste
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl or mason jar, whisk together the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until everything is smooth and well combined.
- Add the Chia Seeds: Sprinkle in the chia seeds and stir thoroughly, making sure they're evenly distributed throughout the coconut milk mixture. This helps the pudding thicken evenly as it chills.
- Stir Again: Let the mixture rest for about 5 minutes, then give it another good stir. This extra step helps break up any clumps of chia seeds and creates a smoother, creamier pudding.
- Chill Until Thickened: Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, though overnight is even better. As it chills, the chia seeds absorb the liquid and transform the mixture into a rich, silky pudding.
- Stir and Serve: Before serving, give the pudding one final stir. If it feels thicker than you'd like, simply stir in a splash of coconut milk. Enjoy it as is, or add your favorite toppings for extra flavor and texture.
