Kathlena, The Allergy Chef
This chia pudding with mango is not only beautiful to look at, but it’s also a tasty, tropical delight for kids. Chia puddings make a great breakfast, snack or lunch side.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 9 oz. frozen mango chunks thawed (W)
  • 11 oz. milk of choice (W)
  • 1.5-2 oz. maple syrup or date syrup
  • 3 Medjool dates pitted (55 g, weighed without pits)
  • 1 tsp. organic vanilla extract
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 12-13 Tbs. chia seeds

Instructions
 

  • Place an empty blender on a digital scale and tare to zero. You’ll be adding each ingredient directly into the blender.
  • In a blender, combine all of the ingredients, except for the chia seeds. Tare between each weighted ingredient. Blend until ultra smooth.
  • Transfer the mix to a large container with a lid.
  • Gently stir in the chia seeds. Make sure there aren’t any clumps and the seeds are well distributed.
  • Refrigerate for several hours or overnight to set.

Notes

  • For a looser pudding, use less chia seeds.
  • Do not freeze.
  • We like to use this pudding as a side dish in lunches. It’s great for those who are unable to purchase commercial puddings.
