Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- 0.5 cup fresh berries (optional for serving)
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Stir the ingredients together thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed in the liquid.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into a mason jar with a lid.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight, so it can thicken into a pudding consistency. Stir the mixture after the first 30 minutes to prevent clumping of seeds.
Once set, the chia pudding should have a similar texture to tapioca pudding: creamy and thick.
Divide the chia seed pudding into two bowls or jars.
Top with fresh berries and sliced almonds, if desired, before serving.
The pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy!
