Indulge in a guilt-free, nutrient-rich soursop and chia dessert. Perfectly vegan and refreshing, this exotic treat is a must-try for health-conscious dessert lovers.
Ingredients
- • soursop pulp: 2 cups (fresh or frozen)
- • chia seeds: 1/3 cup
- • unsweetened coconut milk: 1 cup
- • pure maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- • fresh lime juice: 1 tablespoon
- • shredded coconut: 1/4 cup (for garnish)
- • fresh mint leaves: a handful (for garnish)
Instructions
- 1 If using fresh soursop, peel and remove the seeds to obtain the pulp. If using frozen pulp, allow it to thaw at room temperature.
- 2 In a blender, combine the soursop pulp, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lime juice. Blend until smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- 3 Pour the blended mixture into a large mixing bowl and stir in the chia seeds. Mix thoroughly to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- 4 Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the dessert into a pudding-like consistency.
- 5 Before serving, give the mixture a good stir. Spoon the soursop and chia seed delight into serving bowls. Garnish with shredded coconut and fresh mint leaves for an added touch of freshness and texture.
Serving Suggestions
- • For an extra burst of flavor, serve this dessert with a side of fresh mixed berries or a tropical fruit salad. The natural sweetness and tanginess of the berries complement the exotic flavors of the soursop, adding a vibrant contrast to the creamy texture of the chia seed delight. Pair this dessert with a refreshing herbal tea, such as lemongrass or mint, to enhance the tropical essence of the dish while providing a soothing, caffeine-free beverage option.
Storage Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When ready to enjoy again, give the dessert a good stir to re-incorporate the chia seeds. For longer storage, you can freeze the mixture in individual portions for up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
