Servings: 2
Ingredients
- Chia seeds
- 1/4 cup
- Almond milk
- 1 cup (or any milk of choice)
- Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons (adjust to taste)
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Fresh berries
- 1 cup (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
- Nuts or seeds (optional)
- 1/4 cup (e.g., almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
- Once the pudding has thickened, give it a good stir to break up any clumps that may have formed.
- To serve, spoon the chia seed pudding into individual bowls or jars.
- Top with fresh berries and sprinkle with nuts or seeds, if desired, for added crunch and flavor.
- Enjoy chilled, and feel free to experiment with different toppings like coconut flakes or dark chocolate shavings!
