Ingredients

For the Chia Pudding

• 1 can full-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 6 tablespoons chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Pineapple Layer

• 2 cups fresh Maui Gold Pineapple, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon Lahaina honey
• 1 teaspoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut

For Assembly

• 2 cups Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt
• Extra shredded coconut for topping

Instructions

Make the chia pudding

In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, milk, chia seeds, honey, and vanilla extract. Let sit for 10 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.

Prepare the pineapple

In a separate bowl, stir together the diced Maui Gold Pineapple, honey, lime juice, and shredded coconut. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the flavors to come together.

Assemble the parfaits

Spoon a layer of chia pudding into glasses or jars. Add a layer of yogurt, then top with the pineapple mixture. Repeat as desired.

Finish and serve

Top with extra shredded coconut and fresh mint if using. Serve chilled.
