Pineapple Mango Chia Pudding
$3.42 Recipe/$1.71 Serving
Pineapple mango chia pudding tastes like a pina colada and is so easy to make! Ready in just 5 minutes, no soaking the chia seeds required! This recipe is vegan, Whole30, naturally sweetened and dairy free.
Start by grinding your chia seeds in a high speed blender until well ground (takes about 1-2 minutes, see tips below).
Add ground chia seeds and dairy free milk to a large bowl and stir well immediately. Stir about 1 minute to ensure there are no lumps or clumps of chia seeds.
Let the chia mixture rest 3-4 more minutes to thicken, stirring occasionally.
In a high speed blender, combine the defrosted frozen mango and 1/2 of the pineapple in a high speed blender. Blend until smooth (10-15 seconds).
Pour 1/2 cup of the chia pudding mixture in a glass. top with 1/2 of the mango pineapple puree and top with 1/4-1/2 cup of chia pudding. Add 1/2 of the remaining pineapple chunks and 1/2 of the coconut flakes to the top.
Repeat the previous step with a second glass. eat immediately or store in the fridge.
Notes
Store leftover pineapple mango chia seed pudding in the fridge up to 3 days in a well-sealed container. I love Weck jars for this or mason jars with tight fitting lids.How to grind your own chia seeds at home:
Add whole chia seeds to a high speed blender (I actually prefer a bullet blender for this) and blend on high for 30 seconds or so. Stop and shake the cup to ensure all the seeds get blended and blend another 15-30 seconds.
Once well ground, transfer the ground chia seeds to a air-tight container and store in the fridge up to 2 months
