Description
This recipe uses a specific ratio to create a perfectly thick and creamy vanilla chia pudding base, avoiding a watery or lumpy texture. The pudding is layered with a vibrant purple ube swirl made from chilled coconut cream, transforming it into a stunning and nutritious breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
- 60 g (0.25 cup) chia seeds, black or white
- 350 ml (1.5 cups) full-fat canned coconut milk, unsweetened
- 45 ml (3 tablespoons) maple syrup, or other liquid sweetener
- 2.5 ml (0.5 teaspoon) alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 120 ml (0.5 cup) full-fat coconut cream, chilled from a canned product
- 30 ml (2 tablespoons) powdered sugar
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) ube extract
- 1.25 ml (0.25 teaspoon) alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 10 g (2 tablespoons) toasted coconut flakes, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Vanilla Chia Pudding: Whisk chia seeds, coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Let rest for 5 minutes, then whisk again vigorously. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight until thickened.
- Make Creamy Ube Swirl: In a separate bowl, combine chilled full-fat coconut cream, powdered sugar, ube extract, and additional vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth, creamy, and vibrant purple.
- Layer the Puddings: Spoon half of the vanilla chia pudding evenly into two serving glasses. Top with a generous dollop of the ube swirl, then repeat the layers with the remaining vanilla pudding and swirl.
- Create Swirl Effect: Use a skewer or a thin knife handle to gently swirl the top layer of ube cream into the chia pudding, creating a marbled effect. Avoid overmixing.
- Chill and Set: Return the assembled puddings to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the layers to meld and the top swirl to set properly.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from the refrigerator and garnish immediately with toasted coconut flakes before serving.
Notes
If the ube swirl cream is too stiff from chilling, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before assembling. You can omit the ube extract for a vanilla-only pudding or substitute it with other extracts like almond or pandan.
