Red Dragon fruit, also known as Pitaya is one of my favourite fruits. I had never tried it before I moved up to Queensland. Now you can buy frozen pitaya packs from the supermarket and make the most awesome colour smoothie bowls! I thought I’d mix it up a bit by making these Dragon Fruit Chia Puddings.
These are an awesome colour, and great for a breakfast on the go if you make it in a jar.
You can use coconut sugar instead of brown sugar here – I would’ve used that, but I’d run out. You could also sub maple syrup or brown rice syrup.
I’ve used coconut cream in this recipe, but you could use coconut milk, or any other kind of plant based milk should work as well.
If you’re looking for some other breakfast recipes, check out our Easy Blueberry Spirulina Overnight Oats, or if you’re looking for something a little heartier, try our Vegan Smoked Salmon Breakfast Bowl – one of my fave breakfasts!
We topped these with Coconut yogurt, frozen blueberries, and a sprinkle of chia seeds. You can get creative and top it with whatever takes your fancy. If you try this recipe, please let us know on Instagram or Facebook! And don’t forget to share it with your chia-loving friends and family.
