Coconut and Almond Chia Pudding
More chia seeds! I can’t get enough of them. They’re so filling and full of fiber (which is a major essential for weight loss). This recipe uses almond essence, chopped almonds, and coconut milk. It’s a great recipe to choose when you feel like something a bit sweet and creamy.
Serves: 4 puddings
Container: 4 jars or small bowls with cling film to cover, or 4 containers with lids
Time: approximately 10 minutes (plus chilling overnight)

Ingredients:
- 6 tbsp. chia seeds
- 1 cup wholegrain rolled oats
- 4 tbsp. desiccated coconut
- ½ tsp. almond essence
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 4 cups (32fl oz.) unsweetened coconut milk
- 32 raw almonds, roughly chopped
Method:
- Place the chia seeds, oats, desiccated coconut, almond essence, vanilla extract, coconut milk, and raw almonds into a bowl and stir to combine.
- Divide between your 4 jars or containers, cover, and place in the fridge overnight.
- The chia seeds will expand and become gelatinous as they absorb moisture, so give the pudding a good stir before eating.
