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.
