Ingredients
2 ripe mangoes
2 cups full-fat coconut milk
1/2 cup chia seeds
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, whisk together chia seeds, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until no clumps remain.
2. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until the mixture thickens.
3. Peel and dice the mangoes, then blend them until smooth to make the puree. Thin with 1 tablespoon water if needed.
4. Taste the mango puree and adjust sweetness if desired.
5. In serving glasses or jars, layer the chia pudding and mango puree, alternating between the two.
6. Top with diced mango, toasted coconut flakes, or fresh fruit if desired.
7. Chill for another 30 minutes before serving to let flavors blend.
Notes
Use ripe mangoes for maximum flavor and natural sweetness.
Full-fat canned coconut milk gives the richest texture; shake or stir before using.
Stir the chia mixture once 15 minutes after combining to prevent clumping.
