Ingredients

  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ½ cup granola (store-bought or homemade)
  • Pinch of salt

How to Make Creamy Mango Pudding

  1. In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, coconut milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Pour the mango mixture into serving bowls or cups. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the pudding has thickened.
  3. Once set, remove from the refrigerator and give the pudding a gentle stir if needed.
  4. Top each serving with a generous sprinkle of granola, adding a delightful crunch to the creamy pudding.
  5. Serve chilled and enjoy the refreshing tropical flavors!

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use ripe mangoes for the sweetest flavor and best texture.
  • If you prefer a sweeter pudding, adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to taste.
  • Allow the pudding to chill longer for a thicker consistency.
  • For added nutrition, consider mixing in some chopped nuts or seeds with the granola.

Easy Variations

  • Pineapple Mango Pudding: Swap half of the mango for fresh pineapple for a tangy twist.
  • Berry Topping: Instead of granola, top with fresh berries for a burst of color and flavor.
  • Chocolate Drizzle: Drizzle melted dark chocolate over the top for a decadent touch.

What to Serve With It

  • Fresh fruit salad for a healthy side.
  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
  • Coconut macaroons for a complementary sweet treat.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The granola should be added fresh to maintain its crunch. If you make the pudding in advance, layer the granola just before serving.
