Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Mangoes: 2 ripe ones peeled and diced (about 2 cups / 475 ml).
  • Chia seeds: ¼ cup 60 ml.
  • Almond milk or any plant-based milk: 2 cups (475 ml).
  • Maple syrup or agave nectar: 3 tablespoons (45 ml).
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon 5 ml.
  • Pinch of salt.

Method
 

  1. Begin by blending half the mangoes. This should give you a creamy mango puree. Keep the other half diced for texture and topping.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds and almond milk. Stir them well, ensuring the seeds are spread out and not clumped together.
  3. Next, add in the mango puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the mixture.
  4. Mix all ingredients thoroughly. You want to ensure that everything is evenly distributed.
  5. Pour the mixture into glasses or bowls of your choice.
  6. Refrigerate for about 3-4 hours. This allows the chia seeds to expand, absorbing the liquid, resulting in a pudding-like consistency.
  7. Once set, top the pudding with the reserved diced mangoes.

Notes

TIPS
You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to your taste.
If you prefer a thicker pudding, simply add a tad more chia seeds.
Using fully ripe mangoes will give your Vegan Mango and Chia Seed Pudding the best flavor.
For a different texture, you can also blend all the mangoes instead of leaving some diced.
Store leftovers in the fridge, covered, for up to 3 days.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Garnish with some toasted coconut flakes or crushed nuts for added crunch.
Serve your Vegan Mango and Chia Seed Pudding as a breakfast dish with some granola on top.
Consider adding a drizzle of chocolate syrup or almond butter for an extra layer of flavor.
It pairs well with a cooling mint tea or your favorite herbal brew.
