In a medium-sized bowl or jar, combine chia seeds, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure the seeds are evenly distributed.
Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.
Once set, give the chia pudding a good stir. If it's too thick for your liking, you can add a tablespoon or two of additional almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
Divide the chia pudding into two serving bowls.
Top each serving with fresh berries, coconut flakes, and chopped nuts. Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over the top if using.
Serve immediately, or keep refrigerated for up to 3 days. Enjoy your sugar-free chia pudding as a healthy breakfast or snack!
