Chia pudding with yogurt and fruit
In this dessert, the seeds are soaked in coconut milk with a little dab maple syrup (you can take this out if you are a sugar no in your diet) vanilla and cinnamon. Placed in a mason jar overnight, you get a pudding consistency that is slightly sweet and when combined with Greek Yogurt and fresh berry fruits, creates a delicious and wholesome desert treat!

Combine ingredients: In a bowl or jar, mix together the chia seeds, coconut milk, and optional maple syrup or no sugar sweetner and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Chill: Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken to a pudding-like consistency.
Stir: After the first hour in the fridge, stir the mixture to prevent clumping and ensure even absorption of the liquid.
Serve: Once the chia pudding has thickened to your liking, serve it plain or topped with fresh fruits, nuts, or any other toppings you prefer.
Store: Store any leftover chia pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Stir before serving if it thickens further.
