Ingredients

▢ 85 g chia seeds
▢ 350 ml almond milk or milk of choice
▢ 2 tablespoon honey or other sweetener plus for topping
▢ ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
▢ Fresh berries for topping

Instructions

Add the chia seeds, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract to a bowl or jar and stir well to combine.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, until the chia pudding is thick and fully set.
Stir before serving, divide into individual containers, and top with fresh berries and extra honey if desired.

Notes

Stirring Matters: I always stir twice at the beginning to keep the texture smooth and evenly thick.

Sweetness Adjustment: I prefer keeping it lightly sweet, then adding more honey on top when serving.

Milk Choice: Almond milk keeps it light, while dairy milk makes it richer and creamier.

Texture Fix: If the pudding is too thick after chilling, stir in a splash of almond milk to loosen it before serving.
