INGREDIENTS & EQUIPMENT NEEDED
WHY MAKE YOUR OWN COCONUT MILK?
1. It's cost-effective
Making your own coconut milk, coconut flour, and coconut milk powder can be much more cost-effective than buying them at the store. Store-bought coconut products can be quite pricey, and making them at home can save you a significant amount of money in the long run. Especially if you are buying organic and looking for products that are free from additives & gums!
Additionally, if you live in an area where fresh coconuts are readily available, you can save even more by using fresh coconut flesh to make your own coconut milk, coconut milk powder & coconut flour.
2. It's additive FREE
When buying coconut milk and coconut milk powder at the store, you may have noticed that they all contain either chemical additives, processed ingredients & or emulsifiers. Making your own gives you control over what is in your coconut milk!
3. You control the quality
When you make your own coconut products, you have complete control over the quality of the ingredients you use. You can choose to use organic, non-GMO coconuts and avoid any additives or preservatives or emulsifiers that may be found in store-bought products. This means you can ensure that your coconut products are as healthy and natural as possible.
4. It's fresher
Fresh coconut milk, coconut flour, and coconut milk powder made at home will be much fresher than store-bought products, which may have been sitting on the shelf for months. Fresh coconut products will have a better flavour and aroma, and will also retain more of their nutritional value. Trust me, when see how easy it is to make & you taste this homemade version, you’ll never buy store bought again!
5. It's customizable
When you make your own coconut products, you can customize them to your liking. For example, you can adjust the thickness & fat content of your coconut milk to suit your recipe, or you can make coconut flour with a finer or coarser texture depending on your needs. This level of customization is not possible with store-bought products.
6. It's environmentally friendly
Making your own coconut products can also be more environmentally friendly than buying them at the store. When you make your own products, you can avoid the packaging waste that comes with store-bought products. Additionally, by using fresh coconuts, you can avoid the carbon footprint associated with shipping canned or packaged coconut products long distances (if you are lucky enough to live where you can get fresh coconut).

Storage instructions
I promise you will have this chia pudding gobbled up within the work week! You’ll need to store it in the refrigerator though. So, if you’re like me, and you like a warm breakfast, simply pop it in the microwave at medium power for 1-2 mins until just warmed. It will return to the soft texture it had when you 1st made it. Then just top with your fresh cubed mango, spoonful of warm coconut milk, saffron, cardamom, optional almonds and enjoy!
