Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds whole seeds for texture
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1-2 tbsp pure maple syrup adjust sweetness
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract Madagascar-style adds depth
  • Pinch sea salt cuts the sweetness and enhances flavor
  • Optional toppings fresh berries, sliced bananas, chopped nuts, granola

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl or mason jar, whisk together almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Warm the milk slightly to help dissolve the sweetener faster.
  • Whisk in chia seeds vigorously for 30 seconds to prevent clumping. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to achieve perfect creaminess.
  • Stir the pudding, divide into serving jars or bowls, and top with your favorite fruits, nuts, or granola. Adjust consistency as needed.

Notes

Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer mouthfeel. Stir in a spoonful of Greek yogurt just before serving for extra creaminess. Key to a silky texture is stirring twice and breaking clumps gently.
