Ingredients
  

For the pudding base
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice) Can substitute with coconut milk or traditional dairy.
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds Chia seeds are a superfood that thickens the pudding.
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey Adjust to taste for sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries Plus extra for topping.
  • a pinch salt Balances the sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Stir in the chia seeds and mix well to ensure they are evenly distributed.
  3. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator. Let it sit for at least 4-6 hours or overnight for the best results.
  4. Once it has set, give your pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to achieve your desired consistency.
  5. Fold in the fresh blueberries gently for that burst of flavor.
  6. Scoop your pudding into serving dishes. Top with additional blueberries, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and any desired toppings like granola or nuts.
