Lemon Curd Chia Pudding
INGREDIENTS
Zest of 1 large lemon (or 2 small lemons)
Juice of 2 large lemons
1 can (13.5 or 15 oz) full-fat coconut milk (approximately 1.5 cups)
1/4 cup water (optional)
3 tablespoons sweetener, adjust to taste
A pinch of salt
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
3 to 6 tablespoons chia seeds (use more for a thicker pudding)
INSTRUCTIONS
In a blender, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, coconut milk, water (if using), sweetener, salt, and turmeric. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the chia seeds to the blender and pulse once or twice to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture. Avoid over-blending, as this can break the seeds.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or tartness as desired by adding more sweetener or lemon juice. Blend briefly to incorporate any additions.
Pour the mixture into serving glasses or bowls. Refrigerate overnight. Stirring the mixture after the first hour can help distribute the chia seeds evenly.
Once set, garnish the pudding with whipped coconut cream and a sprinkle of lemon zest before serving.
