Chia seeds are absolutely amazing. Not only do they make decent pets, they provide a complete range of amino acids (a full protein), are full of fiber, omega-3s, fiber, antioxidants, and a broad spectrum of nutrients. And that's just the chia seeds! This pudding packs a powerful nutritious punch. It makes a fantastic make-ahead breakfast or afternoon snack.

If you’re making coconut milk only for this recipe, the easiest way is to add everything to the blender, both the ingredients for the coconut milk and for the pudding, except the chia seeds. Add: water, coconut (dry, shredded or dessicated), pinch sea salt, vanilla seeds, cinnamon and sweetener. Blitz until you get frothy milk.
For the purpose of this recipe, there is no need to strain the milk as the pulp will give the pudding more creaminess.
Pour the spiced coconut milk to a bowl or mason jar, add the chia seeds and give it a good stir or shake. Cover it and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour (until the chia fully expands and absorbs all the milk) or overnight.
Add the toppings and be prepared to be dazzled.
Serve chilled.
