Thai Tea Chia Seed Pudding (Dairy-Free)
Once you taste it, you’ll question whether this is a high-protein + low-carb recipe because it tastes a big too good to be true. But it’s true - the richness of the Thai tea flavor with the creaminess of the coconut milk somehow works perfectly with the chewy texture of chia seeds!
Ingredients:
2 cans of coconut milk
1/4 cup of Thai tea leaves (I use this brand)
4 tbsp of sweetener (I used monkfruit)
7 tbsp of chia seeds
Tools:
Tea steeper for straining (a mesh strainer is too fine for the consistency of coconut milk)
Instructions:
Mix one can of coconut milk and Thai tea leaves in a pot and bring to a low simmer
Once simmering, add in the sweetener
Let the Thai tea mixture cool then strain with a tea steeper into a container with lid
Add in the second can of coconut milk and chia seeds; mix well
Cover and refrigerate overnight
Serve with your favorite toppings (e.g., coconut shreds, coconut cream, sliced almonds, crumbled walnuts, berries, etc.)
