This chia seed pudding with coconut milk is a healthy alternative to processed desserts. Chia seeds make great desserts and are high in omega-3s. This recipe uses agave (or stevia, if you prefer) as a sweetener instead of sugar. Stir again before serving and top with fresh fruit and another dash of cinnamon or spices.
Ingredients
- 2 cups sweetened coconut milk
- 6 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar, or more to taste
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt
- ½ cup chia seeds
- ½ cup diced fresh strawberries (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Whisk together sweetened and unsweetened coconut milks, agave nectar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl; stir in chia seeds. Allow mixture to soak until thickened, at least 20 minutes, or cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Step 2
Stir pudding and top with strawberries.
Tips
You can substitute stevia or sugar for agave.
