Berry Chia Pudding with Coconut Milk
This Berry Chia Pudding with Coconut Milk is the best morning treat to wake up to—Coconut milk chia layered with sweet berry compote.
Ingredients
Coconut Chia Layer
- 1 Cup Chia Seeds
- 2 Cups Coconut Milk unseated
- 1/4 Cup Coconut Cream
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
Berry Compote Layer
- 2 Cups Mixed Berries
- 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
Instructions
- Start with the coconut chia layer. In a medium bowl, stir the chia, coconut milk, coconut cream, vanilla, and maple syrup together. I use canned coconut cream & it tends to have a chunky consistency so be sure to stir out all of the chunks. Once you’ve stirred it well, put it in the fridge. Let it chill for at least 1 hour. I usually check it after 30 minutes, give it a quick stir, then put back in the fridge. During this time, the chia will expand and have the consistency of pudding.
- For the berry compote layer, add the berries and maple syrup to a small bowl. Microwave for a minute, then mix and mash with a fork until it has the consistency of jam.
- Once the coconut chia pudding has set, remove it from the fridge. Using individual serving sized cups or small bowls, add a coconut chia layer, then a berry compote layer, and alternate layers until each individual serving is full.
