Looking for a vibrant and healthy dessert that is both egg-free and packed with tropical flavors? This Bright Egg-Free Mango and Coconut Chia Pudding is the perfect choice. It combines the sweetness of ripe mangoes with the creamy richness of coconut, all enhanced by the nutritional boost of chia seeds.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 cup coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh fruit and mint for garnish
Preparation Steps
Start by blending the diced mango with coconut milk until smooth. This creates a bright, flavorful base for your pudding. Pour the mixture into a bowl or jar.
Add the chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mango-coconut blend. Stir well to combine, ensuring the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like texture.
Serving Suggestions
Before serving, give the pudding a good stir. Spoon it into individual bowls or glasses. Garnish with fresh mango slices, a sprig of mint, or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for added flavor and visual appeal.
