Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)

- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Chia Pudding: In a bowl, combine coconut milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup or honey. Stir well and let sit for about 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and expand.
- Blend Mango: While the chia pudding thickens, blend the diced mango until smooth. Set aside.
- Make Raspberry Sauce: In a separate bowl, mash the raspberries with lemon juice until you achieve a chunky sauce. Sweeten with honey if desired.
- Layer the Pudding: Once the chia pudding has thickened, layer it in serving glasses starting with a layer of chia pudding, followed by mango puree, then raspberry sauce. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used.
- Serve: Top with mint leaves if desired and serve chilled. Enjoy your refreshing Mango Raspberry Chia Pudding!
