4. Peel the orange with a knife and cut out the segments.
5. Layer the chia pudding and skyr in two glasses, top with the orange segments and serve.

Good to know

Chocolate and orange go just as well together in a chia pudding as they do in a cake. The skyr layer gives the dessert body without making it heavy.

Swaps

Milk → soya milk (contains soya). Skyr → Greek yoghurt (creamier, less protein). Honey → maple syrup. Orange → mandarins or clementines.

Cooking tips

Only grate the outer zest – the white pith underneath tastes bitter. Use an unwaxed orange for this.

Storage

Without the skyr and orange, it keeps for 3 days in the fridge.
