Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Chia seeds
- 2 cups Almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries
- 0.5 cup Blueberries
- 1 medium Sliced banana
- 0.25 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Stir the ingredients well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
Once the pudding has set, give it a good stir to ensure a creamy texture. Adjust the sweetness with additional maple syrup if desired.
Wash and prepare the fresh fruit. Slice the strawberries and banana, keeping the blueberries whole.
Divide the chia pudding into individual serving bowls or jars.
Top each serving with a mix of the fresh strawberries, blueberries, and sliced banana.
Sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired for added crunch and protein.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Enjoy chilled.
