Ingredients

• Base
  • 2 cups plain Skyr (Icelandic yogurt)
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Mango Layer
  • 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1–2 tsp maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
• Toppings (optional)
  • Fresh mango slices
  • Toasted coconut flakes
  • Chopped pistachios or almonds
  • Mint leaves

Instructions

1. Mix the base

In a mixing bowl, whisk together Skyr, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.

2. Chill

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.

3. Prepare mango layer

Meanwhile, combine the diced mango with lime juice and optional maple syrup. Blend half of the mixture to form a puree, leaving the rest as small mango cubes.

4. Assemble pudding

When the chia pudding is set, stir it gently. Layer mango puree at the bottom of 4 serving glasses, spoon chia pudding over it, then top with reserved mango cubes.

5. Garnish and serve

Garnish with your choice of fresh mango slices, coconut flakes, chopped nuts, and mint leaves. Serve chilled.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Für eine Extraportion Protein kannst du einen Löffel ungewürztes oder Vanille-Proteinpulver zur Puddingmischung hinzufügen. Um Klümpchen zu vermeiden, empfiehlt es sich, den Pudding nach 30 Minuten noch einmal umzurühren. Statt Mandelmilch kannst du jede Pflanzen- oder Kuhmilch nach Wahl verwenden.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Ersetze Mango durch Beeren oder Ananas für andere fruchtige Geschmacksrichtungen. Für eine vegane Variante verwende pflanzlichen Joghurt anstelle von Skyr und Ahornsirup statt Honig.

Serviervorschläge

Serviere das Puddingglas als frisch-kühlen Start in den Tag oder als gesunden Nachmittagssnack. Dekoriere mit frischen Mangoscheiben, Kokosraspeln, gehackten Nüssen und Minzblättern für eine besondere Optik und zusätzlichen Geschmack.
