Vanilla Coconut Pudding:

• 1 x can of coconut milk (400mL) (or any milk of choice will work)
• 1/2 cup chia seeds

• 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder

Chocolate ‘Icing’

How to

Chia ‘Jam’:

• Heat frozen berries in microwave for 1-2 minutes or over stove-top until melted.
• Stir through chia seeds and jam (if using).
• Pour evenly into 2-3 jars.

Vanilla Coconut Pudding:

1. In a medium bowl combine the coconut milk, chia, maple syrup, vanilla, protein powder and coconut. Whisk until ingredients are well combined.
2. Pour evenly into the jars

Chocolate ‘Icing’:

1. In a small bowl combine all choc icing ingredients (wait until the vanilla layer is part set if you would like the choc layer to stay on top).
2. Gently pour on top of each pudding.
3. Sprinkle with some coconut flakes and place in fridge to set for at least a couple of hours or overnight.
4. As the choc cools down you get these amazing chocolate crunchy bits (think iced magic) throughout the pudding. Yum!
