Chef's Note

For the best texture, make sure to whisk the chia seeds thoroughly to prevent clumping. This pudding can be prepared up to 3 days in advance, making it perfect for busy mornings. For a thicker pudding, add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds, or for a thinner consistency, add more almond milk.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chia seeds

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk

  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 1 medium, diced fresh mango

  • 1 cup, diced fresh pineapple

  • 1 medium, sliced banana

  • 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes

  • 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh mint leaves

Instructions
  • 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 can of coconut milk and 1 cup of almond milk until smooth.

  • 2

    Add 3 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt to the milk mixture. Whisk until well combined.

  • 3

    Gradually add 1/2 cup of chia seeds to the liquid while whisking continuously to prevent clumping.

  • 4

    Continue whisking for about 2 minutes to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

  • 5

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the pudding to set.

  • 6

    While waiting, prepare the tropical fruit toppings by dicing 1 medium mango and 1 cup of fresh pineapple. Slice 1 medium banana.

  • 7

    Toast 1/4 cup of coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Set aside to cool.

  • 8

    After the pudding has set, stir it well to break up any clumps.

  • 9

    Divide the pudding into 4 serving bowls or glasses.

  • 10

    Top each serving with the prepared mango, pineapple, and banana.

  • 11

    Sprinkle each serving with toasted coconut flakes and chopped mint leaves.

  • 12

    Serve immediately or keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
