Print Recipe

Ingredients

1 ½ cups fresh strawberries
½ cup chia seeds
1 cup coconut milk (or alternative)
18 drops monk fruit drops (or to taste. See Recipe Notes for other sweetener options.)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, but recommended)
dash salt (optional, but recommended)

Instructions

Finely chop 1 cup of the strawberries. Slice the rest of the strawberries thinly. Reserve.
Put the chia seeds, coconut milk, monk drops and salt or vanilla, if using, into a medium-sized bowl.
Add ½ cup of finely chopped strawberries to the bowl and mix.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, so that the chia seeds swell. Stir the mixture a few times during the chilling period to prevent them from sticking together.
Stick the sliced strawberries on the sides of the 4 dessert glasses.
Pour the chia seed pudding slowly into the glasses.
Top with the rest of the finely chopped strawberries.

Blended Strawberries Method

Chop 1/2 cup strawberries.
Blend the rest of the strawberries, then add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and chill. Proceed with the rest of the recipe.

Notes

If using an alternative sweetener, note that the amount of monk fruit drops in this recipe is equal to the sweetness of approximately 3 tablespoons of sugar.
I recommend using fresh strawberries for this recipe, but you can use frozen in a pinch. However, they won't slice well for the of the dessert dish as shown in the photo, nor will you want to use then for the toppings. Frozen strawberries would be best suited to the blended chia version.
