Similar to tapioca or rice pudding, chia seed pudding is a thick, creamy mixture that can be sweetened or not and dotted with fresh fruits for an easy-to-tote treat or breakfast. Chia seeds create a gel-like thickness when suspended in liquid. They’re a great way to mimic the texture of grain- or starch-based puddings. If you prefer a smoother pudding, blend the chia seeds with the coconut milk and steeped tea in a high-speed blender or food processor before placing in the refrigerator.

Collagen Chia Seed Pudding

Ingredients

• 1 can unsweetened coconut milk
• ¼ cup chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons loose dried butterfly pea tea flowers*
• ⅓ cup filtered water
• 2 scoops Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel Drink Mix – Vanilla 
• Sliced/chopped fruit for topping
• Sweetener of choice to taste (optional)

*Use optional if you'd like to make a blue chia seed pudding. If you can't find this, you can make the collagen chia seed pudding without it. It'll just have a white color instead of a blue one.

Instructions

• Pour can of coconut milk into large mason jar/container with chia seeds and Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel. Stir well to evenly distribute and break up clumps. 
• Make the butterfly pea tea by boiling ⅓ cup water, add in flowers, and steep for 7-10 minutes. Strain out flowers, add tea to chia mixture, and stir well. 
• Place blue chia pudding mixture in fridge for a few hours/overnight to thicken. 
• When pudding is to your desired thickness, add sliced/chopped fruit to serving bowls or jars and spoon in chia pudding. Sprinkle with sweetener, if desired, and stir.
• Top with more fruit and serve.
