Notes
1. Cane sugar can be used to sub maple syrup, however dark brown sugar may leave a bit of colour in the pudding. Just in case you’re looking for the pure white contrast with the tropical fruit toppings.
2. Avoid using coconut cream for soaking, it tastes too heavy and rich.
3. Canned fruit is also a good option for topping if you don’t have fresh fruit handy.
4. Canned fruit can be mixed in with the chia pudding during soaking instead of topping.
5. Reduce the chia seeds quantity to 3 – 3 ½ tablespoons if you prefer a slightly softer set pudding.
