Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the oats, shredded coconut, chia seeds, honey, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and your choice of milk. Stir until all ingredients are evenly combined.
  2. Pour the mixture into an airtight container or glass jar, leaving space for chia seeds to expand. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  3. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
  4. Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to redistribute the ingredients.
  5. Spoon the pudding into bowls and top with additional Greek yogurt, shredded coconut, or your favorite fruits, and enjoy!
