All, as in 100%, of proceeds from the sale of this digital cookbook, go to Organics 4 Orphans.

Ingredients

For the chia pudding:

  • ½ cup chopped pineapple
  • ¾ cup almond milk
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened coconut yogurt
  • 3 ½ tablespoon chia seeds
  • 3 tablespoon gluten-free rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut plus extra for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla protein powder
  • ¼ tablespoon ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • toasted buckwheat and shredded coconut for garnish

For the layers:

  • ½ cup blackberries
  • ½ cup blueberries
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut yogurt

Instructions

  • Place pineapple into a blender and blend until liquid.
  • Place the pineapple and all remaining chia pudding ingredients into a bowl and mix until fully combined. Cover and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  • Once the chia pudding has sat overnight, get your favourite glass jars ready for layering. Put a layer of pudding, followed by the coconut yogurt and then the fruit. Repeat the layers again, ending with the fruit. Top with a sprinkle of shredded coconut or toasted buckwheat if desired.

Notes

Bonus Tip: For turmeric lovers, sprinkle a little more turmeric in between the layers!

    This is a very beautiful dessert. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it unless I subbed regular yogurt (I'm weird and don't like coconut lol). But I bet my kiddos would like this. Thanks for sharing!
