Notes
Variation: Use lime juice and zest for Lime pudding. Use a mix of full fat and lite coconut milk for a lower fat content.
Tips:
For a more set pudding use 1 tbsp more chia seeds. Chia seeds take atleast overnight to hydrate and set the pudding. I like my pudding with less chia and more of the lemony coconut milk.
Trouble with the pudding not setting? Make sure to Use full fat coconut milk. Reduce the lemon juice and add more zest for the lemon flavor to reduce overall liquid
