A healthy pudding that tastes like mangos

This recipe for mango chia pudding is rich, creamy and bursting with fresh mango flavour.

This recipe is made with just 5 simple ingredients and is perfect for a light and fresh dessert, snack or can even be enjoyed for breakfast.

While you can use any type of mangos for this recipe, I highly recommend using ataulfo mangos (yellow mangos.) These mangos have a creamier texture, a sweeter honey-like taste and are less fibrous than red-skinned mangos.

Why you’ll love this recipe

  • Naturally vegan, gluten-free, grain-free and refined sugar-free.
  • Uses 5 ingredients and takes just 15 minutes to make.
  • Is a light, fresh and fun summer dessert.

Ingredients you’ll need

  • Mangos: Ataulfo mangos are best for this recipe.
  • Coconut milk: full-fat coconut milk from a can is best if you want a rich and creamy chia pudding!
  • Chia seeds: to make up the base of the pudding
  • Agave: just a bit to add some sweetness. (The mangos are pretty sweet on their own!)
  • Vanilla extract: Just a drop.

How to make Mango Chia Pudding

Peel and cut the mangos and blend them up with the coconut milk, agave and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into a bowl with the chia seeds.

  • chia seeds in a clear mixing bowl
  • A clear mixing bowl with blended mangos, cashew milk and chia seeds in it

Use a whisk to mix everything together until it’s well incorporated. Then place the bowl covered in the fridge for an hour, or overnight to set.

Remove from the fridge and enjoy! You can optionally top this recipe off with some more fresh mangos or your favourite fruits.

Tips for making this recipe perfectly

  • Use RIPE Ataulfo mangos. They should be a bit soft to the touch and yellow. If your mangos are a bit green and still hard, they’re not ready. Ripe mangos are key to creating a really sweet and flavourful pudding.
  • Depending on the size of the mangos you use and the brand of coconut milk, you chia pudding can come out slightly thicker or thinner. If your pudding is too thick, add a bit more coconut milk and mix. (if it’s too thin, add a few more chia seeds.)
  • Make sure to mix all the ingredients together well to avoid the chia seeds from clumping.
