Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 4 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and honey.
Whisk the mixture well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and do not clump together.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into an airtight container.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding.
Before serving, wash and hull the fresh strawberries, and then slice them.
Stir the chia pudding to break up any clumps that may have formed.
Divide the chia pudding into four serving bowls or jars.
Top each serving with sliced strawberries and a mint leaf for garnish, if using.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
