Pudding de Chía

Pudding de Chía is a delightful vegan dessert that combines the nuttiness of chia seeds with the creaminess of coconut milk, offering a refreshing treat that's perfect for any occasion. This dish is naturally sweetened with maple syrup and can be topped with fresh fruits for added flavor.

Ingredients

• Chia seeds - 60 grams
• Coconut milk - 400 ml
• Maple syrup - 2 tablespoons
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• Cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon
• Fresh fruits (e.g., berries, banana) - 100 grams for topping

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
2. Whisk the mixture well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
3. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping.
4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a thicker consistency.
5. Once set, stir the pudding again before serving.
