Description
A creamy and delicious Cherry Chia Pudding that combines sweet cherries with coconut milk for a nourishing start to your day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup cherries (pitted and chopped)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the coconut milk, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
- Add the chopped cherries to the mixture and give it another gentle stir.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight to achieve a thicker, pudding-like consistency.
- Once set, give the pudding a good stir before serving.
- Serve chilled, optionally topped with extra cherries or a sprinkle of nuts.
Notes
For the best texture, stir the pudding halfway through the chilling process to break up any clumps of chia seeds. Use fresh cherries when in season; however, frozen ones can be substituted.
