chia puding s kokosom, bananom i jabukama

breakfast series, part 3 - coconut and banana chia pudding with spiced caramelised apples and bananas

{2-3 servings}

what/
1/3 cup chia seeds
1 cup full-fat coconut milk
2/3 cup rice milk
3-4 fresh medjool dates
2 bananas
1 apple
2 tbsp date syrup
1 pinch ceylon cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
3 tbsp homemade oat granola
3 tbsp coarsely chopped almonds

how/
Blend one banana and medjool dates with coconut and rice milk until smooth. Mix the chia seeds with this mixture and let them absorb water for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. It might take the pudding even longer to thicken if the milk/banana mixture is cold. When it's properly thickened, transfer the chia pudding into jars or glasses and put it in the fridge for another 30 minutes (or longer). While waiting for chia seeds to do their magic, you can prepare the spiced apple and banana layer. Chop peeled apple and banana and sautee them in just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan. Add date syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg and continue sauteeing on low heat until there is no more water left. Remove from the heat and let it cool down. Put the fruits into the jars with thickened chia pudding and add some granola and almonds on top. Put the puddings back in the fridge to cool down some more, or eat them immediately! Bon appétit 🌸
