Ingredients
- 0.5 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.125 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup fresh berries
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and sea salt.
Step 2
Whisk the mixture thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumping together. This will help the pudding set with a smooth consistency.
Step 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into an airtight container.
Step 4
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like texture.
Step 5
Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to ensure an even texture.
Step 6
Divide the chia seed pudding into serving dishes or bowls.
Step 7
Top with fresh berries for added sweetness and a pop of color.
Step 8
Serve immediately, or keep refrigerated for up to 5 days for a quick and nutritious snack.
