  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Primary Ingredients

  • ¼ whole dragonfruit
  • 1 cup yogurt (plant-based for vegan option)
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds

Optional Sweetener

  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dragonfruit: Cut the dragonfruit and scoop out the flesh carefully into a bowl or directly into your blender. Make sure to remove any seeds you do not want in your pudding.
  2. Blend the base: Add the dragonfruit flesh and yogurt to the blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste the mixture and, if you prefer a sweeter pudding, add 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup or agave syrup. Blend again briefly to combine the sweetness evenly.
  3. Mix in chia seeds: Pour the blended dragonfruit and yogurt mixture into a jar or bowl. Add the chia seeds and stir vigorously to ensure they are well distributed and not clumped together.
  4. Refrigerate: Place the mixture in the fridge for at least 1 hour to allow the chia seeds to swell and the pudding to thicken. For best texture, refrigerate overnight.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Before serving, you can top the pudding with fresh dragonfruit pieces or your favorite fruit toppings for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Choose your yogurt based on dietary preference: coconut or almond yogurt for vegan, dairy yogurt for a creamier texture.
  • Maple syrup or agave syrup is optional and depends on your sweetness preference and the tartness of the yogurt used.
  • Chia seeds can be ground slightly if you prefer a smoother pudding.
  • Refrigerate overnight for the best pudding consistency.
  • Dragonfruit provides not only vibrant color but also antioxidants and fiber.
