2 Ingredient Dairy Free Chia Pudding With Coconut Milk Recipe – Easy Vegan Chia Seed Recipes – A simple make ahead overnight creamy breakfast idea & video tutorial.
Chia Pudding With Coconut Milk Recipe
I adore chia puddings – I’ve shared recipes for chocolate chia seed pudding, raspberry and lemon varieties and today I’m sharing an easy 2 ingredient chia pudding with coconut milk.
This chia seed pudding really couldn’t be simpler – you open a can of coconut milk, measure out a portion and then add chia seeds.
Stir well and then refrigerate for a few hours or overnight and your chia pudding will thicken beautifully.
You can mix the ingredients together in a small bowl, mason jar or airtight container that you can grab and go.
If you’d like, you could pop the chia pudding into a blender before refrigerating for a smoother texture.
I used canned full fat coconut milk in this recipe for a rich coconut flavor and healthy fats. If you use boxed, watered down coconut milk then you’ll definitely need one of the below toppings for flavor.
You can also feel free to swap the coconut milk for almond milk, oat milk or any type of milk you like, being sure to use non-dairy milk if you’d like the creamy pudding to be completely dairy free.
Chia Pudding Topping Ideas
There are loads of ways to adapt and flavor the basic recipe. Here are some ideas for you to make the perfect healthy breakfast:
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder, cacao nibs or chocolate chips for a chocolate chia pudding
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla such as pure vanilla extract
- Fresh fruit, fresh berries or frozen berries such as blueberries, raspberries or strawberries (or your favorite fruit!)
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon and sugar/maple syrup
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon Sugar, sweetener, maple syrup or your sweetener of choice for sweetness
- Lemon zest or or juice for a lemon infused healthy breakfast recipe
- Yogurt such as vanilla yogurt or coconut yogurt for a thick pudding with the perfect texture
- Nuts, seeds, peanut butter, almond butter or any other nut butter you like
- Jam or Chia Seed Jam
- Coconut flakes or coconut chips for added coconut flavor
- Protein powder
The easy recipe makes a brilliant meal prep option and you can pick your simple ingredients of choice to mix through and top your healthy snack or make ahead breakfast with.
Chia Pudding Ratio
The below easy chia seed pudding recipe makes a small, snack or dessert sized portion so the ratio of chia seeds to liquid is 2 tablespoons chia seeds to 1/2 cup coconut milk.
For more of a hearty breakfast and a thicker pudding, use the ratio of 1/4 cup of chia seeds to 1 cup of coconut milk instead.
To make a low carb, keto friendly recipe to help you meet your weight loss goals, just be sure to use unsweetened coconut milk and toppings that have no added sugar.
