Ingredients

• Base
• 2 cups plain Skyr (Icelandic yogurt)
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 1/4 cup chia seeds
• 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Mango Layer
• 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1–2 tsp maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
• Toppings (optional)
• Fresh mango slices
• Toasted coconut flakes
• Chopped pistachios or almonds
• Mint leaves

Instructions

1.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together Skyr, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.

2.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.

3.

Meanwhile, combine the diced mango with lime juice and optional maple syrup. Blend half of the mixture to form a puree, leaving the rest as small mango cubes.

4.

When the chia pudding is set, stir it gently. Layer mango puree at the bottom of 4 serving glasses, spoon chia pudding over it, then top with reserved mango cubes.

5.

Garnish with your choice of fresh mango slices, coconut flakes, chopped nuts, and mint leaves. Serve chilled.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

For an added protein boost, stir in a scoop of unflavored or vanilla protein powder into the pudding mixture before refrigerating. Make sure to whisk thoroughly to maintain a smooth texture. Stirring after 30 minutes during chilling helps reduce clumps and keeps the pudding creamy.

Varianten und Anpassungen

If mango isn’t in season or to suit your taste, swap it for berries or pineapple for a different fruity twist. For a vegan version, replace the Skyr with plant-based yogurt and use maple syrup as the sweetener.

Serviervorschläge
