02 - 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup or agave syrup
03 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
04 - 1 pinch sea salt
05 - 6 tablespoons chia seeds

# Steps:

01 - In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until fully combined and smooth.
02 - Stir chia seeds into the coconut milk mixture, ensuring even distribution.
03 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring the mixture after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.
04 - In a blender or food processor, blend diced mangoes with lime juice and optional maple syrup until smooth, or pulse briefly for a chunkier texture.
05 - After the chia pudding has thickened, stir well and divide evenly among 4 serving glasses or bowls.
06 - Spoon mango puree over each portion of chia pudding.
07 - Top with toasted coconut flakes and fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve chilled.

# Notes:

01 - For a lighter consistency, substitute half the coconut milk with unsweetened almond or oat milk.
02 - Mango can be replaced with pineapple or passionfruit for variation.
03 - For added texture, fold diced mango into the pudding before serving.
04 - Pairs well with coconut water or a crisp Riesling.
