Skyr Chia Pudding with Mango (Printable)

Nutritious Skyr chia pudding layered with fresh mango.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Base

01 - 2 cups plain Skyr (Icelandic yogurt)
02 - 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
03 - 1/4 cup chia seeds
04 - 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey
05 - 1 tsp vanilla extract

→ Mango Layer

06 - 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
07 - 1 tbsp lime juice
08 - 1–2 tsp maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)

→ Toppings (optional)

09 - Fresh mango slices
10 - Toasted coconut flakes
11 - Chopped pistachios or almonds
12 - Mint leaves

# How-To Steps:

01 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together Skyr, almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
02 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.
03 - Meanwhile, combine the diced mango with lime juice and optional maple syrup. Blend half of the mixture to form a puree, leaving the rest as small mango cubes.
04 - When the chia pudding is set, stir it gently. Layer mango puree at the bottom of 4 serving glasses, spoon chia pudding over it, then top with reserved mango cubes.
05 - Garnish with your choice of fresh mango slices, coconut flakes, chopped nuts, and mint leaves. Serve chilled.
