Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

In a jar or medium bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and optional cinnamon.

Step 2

Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then give it another good stir to break up any clumps of chia seeds that may have formed.

Step 3

Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, until the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency.

Step 4

Before serving, stir the pudding well. Spoon into serving bowls or glasses, layering with fresh berries.

Step 5

Top with sliced almonds or coconut flakes for a delightful crunch and serve chilled.

💡 Pro Tips for Success

•Stir the mixture again after 15 minutes of refrigeration to prevent chia seeds from settling at the bottom.
•Use warm milk to start if you want the chia seeds to absorb liquid faster.
•Top with a drizzle of almond butter or dark chocolate chips for an indulgent twist.
