It’s been awhile since I made a chia pudding so I thought I’d give this combination a go! With it being 34C/93F the last few days, baking is out of the question for me. The tropical taste of coconut and pineapple are a perfect fusion and satisfy any cravings you may have.
I used white chia seeds for the first time in this. They don’t taste any different than the black chia seeds, but are more visually appealing for lighter colored puddings.
The sauce is quite simple to make. You don’t have to add any sweetener to the sauce, but it will depend on how sweet your pineapple is. I used Coconut White Balsamic Vinegar in mine and it is awesome! If you don’t have coconut flavored vinegar, feel free to use any white balsamic vinegar or a splash of lemon juice.
