Ingredients
Scale
Chia Pudding
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
Fruit Layer
- 1 cup fresh diced fruits (mango, pineapple, kiwi)
Topping
- 1/4 cup granola
Instructions
- Mix Chia and Coconut Milk: In a bowl, whisk together chia seeds and full-fat coconut milk until thoroughly combined. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
- Add Sweetener: Stir in honey or maple syrup to sweeten the chia pudding to your taste, ensuring the sweetness is evenly distributed.
- Prepare Fruit Base: Layer a portion of the diced tropical fruits (mango, pineapple, kiwi) at the bottom of serving glasses to create a fresh and vibrant base.
- Assemble Parfait: Spoon the thickened chia pudding mixture evenly over the fruit layers, then add additional diced fruits on top for garnish and extra flavor.
- Add Crunchy Topping: Sprinkle the granola over the parfaits for a delicious crunchy finish. Serve immediately for best texture or refrigerate to enjoy chilled later.
Notes
- For a vegan option, use maple syrup instead of honey.
- Allow chia pudding to chill for at least 30 minutes or overnight for a thicker consistency.
- Use fresh, ripe tropical fruits for the best flavor.
- Granola can be substituted with nuts or seeds for different textures and dietary needs.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
