Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup of chia seeds with 2 cups of coconut milk. Stir well until incorporated.
  2. Add the zest and juice of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until well-blended.
  3. Whisk vigorously for 1-2 minutes to prevent clumping of chia seeds.
  4. Let the mixture rest for 5-10 minutes to allow chia seeds to absorb the liquid.
  5. Pour the mixture into containers or serving jars, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
  6. Before serving, stir the pudding well, adjust sweetness if needed, and top with fresh fruit.
