Ingredients
CHIA PUDDING BASE:
- 1 can Native Forest Simple Organic Coconut Milk, Unsweetened
- 3/4 cup Organic Applesauce, unsweetened
- 3 tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Badia Chia Seeds or Navitas Organics Chia Seeds
TOPPINGS:
- 3-4 medium Honeycrisp Apples, peeled and diced
- 1 1/2 tbsp Coconut Sugar
- 1 tsp Apple Pie Spice
- 3 tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- Himalayan Pink Salt, just a pinch
- 1/4 large Lemon, freshly squeezed juice
Instructions
- Make the pudding: To a large bowl, add the coconut milk, applesauce, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon. With a hand mixer, mix on medium speed until just incorporated.
- Blend: Mix in the chia seeds and set aside. Blend the pudding a couple of different times over the next 10 minutes. Allow to sit in the fridge overnight or for at least 4 hours.
- Make the topping: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add all of the ingredients and stir to combine. Cook the apple mixture until the mixture becomes thick and the apples are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
- To assemble: Divide the pudding among 4-6 jars or containers of choice and top with apple pie filling.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Pudding: Once the pudding is divided into individual portions, let it rest on the counter for about 5 minutes before topping it with the warm apples. That way, the base isn’t so cold.
