Description
A creamy and nutritious chia pudding that feels like a dessert but fuels your body with healthy fats and omega-3s.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh fruits for topping (e.g., berries, mango)
- Granola (for layering, optional)
Instructions
