Coconut milk chia pudding verrines with granola and raspberries
How to make chia pudding? It's simple! Mix chia seeds with plant-based milk. Plus, we use this pudding to create a dessert that is crunchy, creamy, and fruity! The addition of granola and blended raspberries helps achieve this. Enjoy making it by following the steps below ↓
Ingredients
Materials
- 1 blender
- 2 glasses
Preparation
- Combine coconut milk, chia seeds, and 1 Tbsp agave syrup in a bowl. Cover and let it rest for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. This time will allow the chia seeds to swell.
- Blend raspberries with 1 Tbsp agave syrup. Taste and add more agave syrup if the mixture seems too sour; at Ptitchef, we enjoy these flavors as they are :-D
- Assemble the verrines: Place 50g of granola at the bottom of each glass. On top, add the chia pudding, ensuring it adheres well to the sides for a watertight layer. Finish by pouring the blended raspberries on top.
Repeat the process for the second glass.
And there you have it, your verrines are ready!
Observations
What are the health benefits of chia seeds in this pudding?
Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein, making them a nutritious addition to your diet. They can help improve digestion, support heart health, and provide sustained energy.
Can I use other types of milk instead of coconut milk?
Yes, you can substitute coconut milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based milk of your choice. Each will impart a different flavor and texture to the pudding.
How long should I let the chia pudding sit before serving?
It's recommended to let the chia pudding sit for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator to allow the seeds to swell and create a creamy texture. For best results, you can prepare it the night before.
What can I add to enhance the flavor of the pudding?
You can enhance the flavor by adding vanilla extract, cinnamon, or even a pinch of salt. Fresh fruits, nuts, or seeds can also be added for extra texture and taste.
Can I make this dessert in advance?
Absolutely! This dessert can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Just assemble the layers before serving for the best presentation and texture.
