Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh fruits
Instructions
- Initial Mix: Combine chia seeds and almond milk in medium bowl. Stir thoroughly and let sit 5 minutes until seeds begin absorbing liquid
- Add Sweeteners: Mix in maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir well to distribute flavors evenly throughout mixture
- Refrigerate: Cover bowl and refrigerate for minimum 2 hours or overnight until mixture reaches pudding-like consistency
- Prepare Fruits: Wash and chop fresh fruits into bite-sized pieces while pudding sets in refrigerator
- Layer and Serve: Spoon chia pudding into glasses or bowls, top with fresh fruits, and serve immediately
Notes
- Stir the mixture every 5 minutes for the first 20 minutes to prevent chia seed clumping and ensure smooth texture
- Use room temperature almond milk for faster absorption and better consistency
- Add fruits just before serving to maintain their texture and prevent color bleeding into the pudding
- Make individual portions in mason jars for convenient grab-and-go breakfast options that stay fresh for up to 3 days
