Description

This Easy Coconut Chia Pudding is creamy, naturally sweet, and made with just a few wholesome ingredients. It’s the perfect make-ahead breakfast, snack, or healthy dessert. With the rich flavor of coconut and the nutritional boost of chia seeds, it’s both delicious and good for you!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup canned coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess or light for fewer calories)

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other plant-based milk)

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds

  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (to taste)

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of salt

Optional toppings:

  • Fresh berries

  • Sliced banana

  • Toasted coconut flakes

  • Nuts or seeds

  • A drizzle of nut butter

 



Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together coconut milk, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth.

  2. Stir in the chia seeds, making sure they’re well distributed.

  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until thickened. Stir once after the first 15–20 minutes to prevent clumping.

  4. When ready to eat, stir again and serve with your favorite toppings.


Notes

  • For extra coconut flavor, use all coconut milk and top with toasted coconut flakes.

  • Store in the fridge for up to 4 days—great for meal prep!

  • Adjust sweetness to your liking with more or less maple syrup.
