Strawberry Coconut Chia Pudding Creamy Delight

Ingredients

• 1 cup coconut milk (canned or carton)
• 1 4 cup chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 pinch salt
• 0 optional toasted coconut flakes for garnish

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
2. Stir in the chia seeds until evenly distributed in the mixture.
3. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes before stirring again to prevent clumping of the chia seeds.
4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the chia pudding has thickened to a creamy consistency.
5. When ready to serve, divide the chia pudding into serving glasses or bowls.
6. Layer the sliced strawberries on top of the pudding, creating a decorative pattern.
7. If desired, sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes for an extra crunch and tropical flavor.
