Ingredients
1 can coconut milk
½ cup chia seeds
Maple syrup to taste
4 kiwis, peeled and chopped
2 ataulfo mangos (or 1 paraíso mango), peeled and chopped
Desiccated coconut for garnish
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, combine the coconut milk and chia seeds. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed in the milk.
-
Add maple syrup to taste and stir until the sweetener is fully dissolved.
-
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the coconut milk and thicken.
-
In the morning, stir the chia pudding to check its consistency. If too thick, add a little more coconut milk to achieve your desired texture.
-
While the pudding is setting, prepare the tropical fruit by peeling and chopping the kiwis and mangos into bite-sized pieces.
-
Once the pudding is ready, spoon it into bowls or jars. Top with the chopped fruit and sprinkle with desiccated coconut.
-
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
