Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup chia seeds
- 2 cups almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to avoid clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid.
- Once thickened, stir again and spoon into serving bowls. Top with your favorite fruits, nuts, or extra cinnamon. Enjoy chilled!
Notes
- For a thicker pudding, reduce almond milk by ¼ cup.
- Add toppings like berries, granola, or nut butter for extra flavor.
