Add the chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla to a bowl or jar and stir together. Let sit for 10 minutes, then stir again once the seeds have started to gel.
Cover the bowl or jar and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Chia seeds can also be made overnight for breakfast the next morning.
Stir the chia pudding before serving and add your favorite fruit, nuts, seeds and spices.
- The nutritional information is for an individual serving.
- If you notice your chia seeds aren't starting to gel and thicken after 15 minutes, you may have dud chia seeds. This can happen in they've been sitting in your pantry a while. Just grab a new bag of chia seeds.
- You can always add more milk for a thinner texture, if you feel your chia pudding is a bit too thick.
- I layered my chia pudding on top of a strawberry fruit puree, which was simply fresh strawberries pureed in my food processor. That's it!
