Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat, canned coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons desiccated coconut
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 lemon, juice and zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 serving collagen or protein powder

Toppings

  • Whipped coconut cream - recipe link below in notes
  • Desiccated coconut
  • Lemon zest

Instructions

  • Mix together the pudding ingredients in a mason jar or a container with a sealable lid until they are well mixed. Set it in the fridge to thicken for about 20 minutes.
    After 20 minutes, remove from the fridge and whisk again. This step is super important to prevent the chia seeds from all clumping together!
    Remove the pudding from the refrigerator. Top with the optional whipped cream, then sprinkle on the coconut and lemon zest.
    Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
