Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup chia seeds, 1/3 cup passion fruit pulp, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
- Step 2: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb liquid and form a pudding-like texture.
- Step 3: While the pudding sets, heat a small dry skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut and toast, stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Step 4: Once the pudding is set, stir gently to smooth out any lumps. Divide into 2 serving glasses or bowls.
- Step 5: Top each pudding with 1 tbsp toasted coconut flakes and garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving chilled for a tropical-inspired treat.
