Ingredients
For the pudding:
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, or milk of your choice
- 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup, can use honey
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- Fresh fruit
- Granola
- Coconut
- Nuts
- Nut butter
- Drizzle of maple syrup
Instructions
- Add the chia seeds to a jar. I recommend an 8 oz jar to leave room for toppings.
- Pour the milk over the chia seeds. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
- Let sit for 15 minutes. Stir again until well combined and there is no clumping.
- Cover the jar with a lid and store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. For best results, chill overnight so the pudding has enough time to thicken up.
- When ready to eat, remove from the refrigerator and stir. If the pudding is too thick, you can add a splash of milk and stir again. Top with fresh fruit and other desired toppings. Enjoy!
Notes
This recipe makes 1 serving. If you want to double, triple, or quadruple the recipe for meal prep, you can! You can make the chia pudding in individual jars or make in a large bowl and then divide it into individual jars. Just make you stir well before putting in the fridge, so the pudding thickens. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
