Ingredients
2cupscanned light coconut milk
1cupplain greek yogurt
2teaspoonvanilla extract
2tablespoonmaple syrup
½cupchia seeds
¼cupunsweetened shredded coconutoptional
Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together coconut milk, greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
- To the wet ingredients, whisk in chia seeds and shredded coconut (if using).
- Cover and place in the fridge for at least 3 hours to thicken (ideally overnight). NOTE: if you are noticing the chia seeds sinking to the bottom, I recommend checking on the pudding in about 1-3 hours, giving it a stir and then placing it back in the fridge.
Serve topped with berries, mango and toasted coconut if desired.
Notes
For a higher protein option substitute the ¼ cup of coconut with ¼ cup vanilla or plain protein powder of choice.
I recommend using canned coconut milk as it has the most flavour and creamiest consistency.
