Total time
 
Serves: 1
Ingredients
  • For the pudding:
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey or pure maple syrup or a few drops of stevia
  • For the compote:
  • ½ cup diced fresh strawberries
  • 3 dried figs, finely chopped
  • Other toppings/layers:
  • 1 tablespoon natural almond butter
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened coconut, toasted lightly
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey
Instructions
  1. In a jar add the chia pudding ingredients, shake vigorously for a minute and place in the fridge. Let sit for 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat add the strawberries and chopped figs, mash the strawberries and the figs together as they warm and bring to a bubble.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat add to a bowl and place in the fridge to thicken and cool until the chia pudding has thickened.
  4. Once the chia pudding is thickened (minimum 30 minutes later, the longer you leave it the better consistency it gets, sometimes I leave mine overnight) layer it in another jar with the almond butter and the compote and top with a drizzle of honey and toasted coconut.
