This Coconut Chia Pudding is an ultra-creamy fiber-packed breakfast perfect for a healthy start to the day. Its creaminess comes from light coconut milk, and you will love the coconut pieces of shredded coconut in the pudding.

In a small bowl, add chia seeds, coconut milk, coconut yogurt, maple syrup, and shredded coconut.
Use a fork to stir, or a handheld milk frother. Set it aside on the benchtop for the next 10 minutes, and every 2-3 minutes, stir to make sure the seeds don't form lumps.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap, refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight, until the pudding is thick and seeds have absorbed the liquid.
Serve with fresh fruits and extra shredded coconut on top.
Note 1: You can use white or black chia seeds, they are the same. You can also grind the chia seeds in a powder if you do not like the texture of soaked whole chia seeds.Note 2: You can use any coconut milk, for a light, low calorie breakfast use packaged unsweetened coconut milk. For a creamier pudding use canned coconut milk, make sure you shake the can before opening and measuring.Note 3: You can use any yogurt. I love unsweetened dairy-free coconut yogurt to add creaminess and coconut flavor to the pudding, especially if you used packaged coconut milk that is not as creamy as canned. You can skip yogurt for more coconut milk for a lighter texture.Note 4: Any sweetener can be used like agave syrup, coconut nectar, or 1 drop of stevia for a low sugar option.Note 5: Any type of dried coconut taste good, for more texture use coconut flakes, or for less texture use unsweetened desiccated coconut.Storage: You can store the pudding in the fridge in sealed airtight jars for up to 3 days.
