You’ll love these simple coconut chia pudding breakfast bowls! All you need to do is mix up the coconut and chia pudding base and then add some toppings and you’re good to go. You can make the pudding ahead of time or even leave it overnight but it will firm up in just a couple of minutes so you can make it on the fly too.

These bowls are perfect for breakfast but you can also make a great snack or dessert. To make it a dessert, drizzle it with melted dark chocolate and pure maple syrup. For a snack, keep it simple and just add some berries to sweeten it up.

Nutrition Notes

One serving of this chia pudding provides 235 calories with 15 grams of carbohydrates, 16 grams of fat and 7 grams of protein. You’ll also be getting 13 grams of dietary fibre and about 30% of your daily iron and calcium needs.

This does not include any toppings so you’ll have to adjust that depending on what you add. If you top the pudding with 1 tbsp of almond butter, 1/2 cup of fresh berries and 2 tsp of cacao nibs, the entire dish will be 400 calories with 30 grams of carbs, 27 grams of fat and 11 grams of protein with 18 grams of fibre.
