Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Layers

Combine all the ingredients for the *pink layer* in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine all the ingredients for the *green layer*. Stir each mixture thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

Let both mixtures sit for *1-2 hours* to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like texture.

Step 2

Layer the Pudding

Once the chia puddings have set, spoon the mixtures into glasses or bowls, creating distinct *layers*. Start with the pink layer, followed by the green layer.

Step 3

Add Greek Yogurt and Raspberry Puree

Top each chia pudding with a layer of plain *Greek yogurt*. Prepare the raspberry puree by blending raspberries and honey together, then add a spoonful of this puree on top of the yogurt layer.

Step 4

Garnish and Serve

For a beautiful presentation, garnish each serving with whole *raspberries* and any other berries or fruits of your choice.

Servings

Serving this layered chia pudding is a joy ✨. Imagine bringing these colorful treats to a brunch gathering, each glass meticulously layered with pink and green goodness. *Serving suggestion*: Pair each pudding with a light breakfast spread featuring whole grain toast, avocado, and poached eggs 🥑🍳. Alternatively, these puddings make a fabulous post-dinner dessert surprise, especially if you're hosting a party. Add a sprinkle of edible flowers on top for a magical touch 🌸. For a final flourish, serve alongside a tray of artisanal cheese and fruits 🍓🥝.

Variations

For our gluten-free friends, rejoice! This recipe is naturally gluten-free 🧡. Just make sure that the yogurt you use doesn't contain any hidden gluten. For a *vegan version*, swap out the Greek yogurt for a plant-based yogurt—almond or coconut yogurt works wonderfully. Also, replace the honey with maple syrup or agave nectar 🍯. These substitutions make it a delightful vegan-friendly treat without sacrificing any flavor or aesthetic appeal!
