Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Für mehr Protein rühre einen Löffel Proteinpulver (natur oder Vanille) in die Pudding-Basis ein. Um die Mango noch aromatischer zu machen, verwende sehr reife Früchte und schmecke je nach Süße mit etwas mehr Ahornsirup ab. Rühre die Mischung nach 30 Minuten im Kühlschrank einmal um, damit sich die Chiasamen gleichmäßig verteilen und keine Klümpchen entstehen.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Statt Mango kannst du auch Beeren oder Ananas verwenden. Für eine vegane Version tausche Skyr durch ein pflanzliches Joghurtprodukt und verwende Ahornsirup statt Honig. Wer keine Nüsse verträgt, kann auf Kokosflocken, Kakaonibs oder mehr frisches Obst als Topping ausweichen.

Serviervorschläge

Serviere die Skyr Chia Puddings in Gläsern oder kleinen Einmachgläsern. Toppe sie frisch vor dem Servieren mit Mango, Kokosflocken, gehackten Nüssen und Minze für einen köstlichen Crunch. Sie eignen sich hervorragend als Frühstück, schnelles Dessert oder gesunder Snack für unterwegs – einfach verschließen und mitnehmen!
