Instructions:
- Measure out 2 cups of coconut milk.
- Measure 1/3 cup of honey.
- Measure 1/3 cup of chia seeds.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour in the 2 cups of coconut milk.
- Add the 1/3 cup of honey to the coconut milk.
- Stir the mixture well until the honey is completely dissolved into the coconut milk. This may take a minute or two to ensure that the honey is fully incorporated.
- Gradually pour the 1/3 cup of chia seeds into the coconut milk and honey mixture.
- Stir continuously as you add the chia seeds to prevent clumping. Make sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes. This helps the chia seeds begin to absorb the liquid and expand slightly.
- After 5 minutes, give the mixture another good stir to break up any clumps and ensure the chia seeds are still well distributed.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to a sealable container.
- Place the covered bowl or container in the refrigerator.
- Let the pudding chill for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and swell, creating a thick, pudding-like consistency.
- Once the pudding has thickened, give it one last stir.
- Serve the Chia and Coconut Pudding in individual bowls or glasses.
