Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 4 hours
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup plant-based milk I use almond, but coconut milk works beautifully too
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey if not vegan
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mixed berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • Optional toppings: granola coconut flakes, additional fresh berries

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, combine the chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Give it a good stir – make sure there aren't any clumps of chia seeds sticking together.
  • Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again. This extra step prevents the chia seeds from clumping at the bottom.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. I usually make it before bed for the best results.
  • When ready to serve, give it another quick stir. The mixture should be thick and pudding-like.
  • Layer the pudding with fresh berries in your favorite jar or bowl, then add your chosen toppings.
