Oh man. This one’s serious. Honestly, it’s like Cinnamon Toast Crunch.. without the crunch. Great for breakfast. Also great for dessert.
In a blender combine
- one cup coconut milk
- half a vanilla bean*
- a few dashes of pumpkin pie or apple pie spice blend
- (which is mostly made up of cinnamon and nutmeg)
- a pinch of sea salt
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
blend for a few seconds and pour the mixture into a bowl with 1/4 cup chia seeds. mix, cover, and refrigerate overnight. It will be perfect and ready for consumption by morning.
*I know real vanilla bean is expensive but it’s really worth it. You can use extract if you’re on a seriously tight budget… but slicing that bean open and scraping out the good stuff… oh man, there’s nothing quite like it.
