Berry pudding with chia seeds is a light and healthy dessert inspired by Italian cuisine. Chia, known for their ability to turn liquid into a soft gel, create a creamy texture, while the combination of bananas and frozen berries gives it a rich fruity flavor. The history of chia seeds traces back to the culture of the ancient Aztecs, who valued them for their nutritional properties. This dessert is not only delicious but also nutritious as it is rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants. It can be served for breakfast or as a refreshing snack. The delicate coconut aroma and crunch of coconut flakes make it even more exquisite. Chilled, it is perfect for a summer day and requires minimal effort to prepare – just mix the ingredients and let them sit. A true delight for health food enthusiasts!

Mix coconut milk with chia seeds, let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the seeds start to swell, stirring occasionally. Spread evenly over the berry puree (can be sweetened if desired).
