Instructions
Blend the Base
Blend the pureed mango with the full fat coconut milk and vanilla extract until completely smooth. Taste the mixture to ensure it is naturally sweet and does not require any additional sweeteners.
Add Chia Seeds
Pour the mango coconut mixture into a bowl and stir in the chia seeds thoroughly. Make sure the seeds are evenly distributed and none are clumped together.
Refrigerate and Set
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Stir the mixture once after 30 minutes to prevent the chia seeds from settling to the bottom.
Serve with Toppings
Spoon the set pudding into small cups and top with a dollop of plain yogurt and small pieces of soft diced mango. Preload a spoon and offer to baby or serve the mango pieces as finger food alongside.
