Make this fruity, nutty, healthy dish for breakfast or dessert – it’s your choice. The chia makes this pudding reminiscent of tapioca; it’s also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. The jar makes it super portable and shows off its pretty layers.

| Inactive: | 8 hr |
| Yield: | 1 jar (about 1/3 cup each chia pudding and fruit) |
Ingredients
- One 13.5-ounce can light coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 2 medium kiwis, peeled and sliced
- 1/4 cup raspberries
- 2 tablespoons roasted almonds, chopped
Instructions
- Special equipment: four 8-ounce glass jars with lids
- Stir together the coconut milk, chia seeds and maple syrup in a medium bowl. Divide the mixture evenly among four 8-ounce glass jars. Screw on the lids, and refrigerate overnight, covered, to allow the seeds to plump and the mixture to thicken into a loose pudding.
- Arrange the pineapples, kiwis, raspberries and almonds in separate layers on top of the pudding. Cover with the lid, and keep refrigerated for up to 1 day.

Reviews
If it only good for one day and you’ve prepared 4 of them, are you expected to discard the other 3?
Can you use coconut milk from a carton or it has to be the canned coconut milk?
I love it!!
It’s not thickening like it should. Why? I love this pudding with strawberries blueberries and blackberries but mine did not work. Should I have whipped like whip cream instead of stir?
This is my new breakfast obsession! 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup is plenty to sweeten it and not over-power the sweetness of the fruit. I also microwave the chia pudding for 1 minute and let it cool to room temperature before putting it in the fridge to get a thicker pudding. It’s a great recipe for any fruit salad you have on hand.
