Ingredients
Scale
- 3 tablespoons black or white chia seeds
- 1/2 cup non-fat or 2% plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- In a small mason jar or bowl, combine the chia seeds, Greek yogurt, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a whisk or a fork to stir vigorously. Ensure you break up any clumps of Greek yogurt so the mixture is smooth and the seeds are evenly distributed.
- Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes on the counter, then give it one more thorough stir. This second stir prevents the chia seeds from settling at the bottom and forming a solid block. Cover the jar with a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, though overnight is best for the thickest texture.
- Once the pudding has set and achieved a thick consistency, remove it from the fridge. Give it a quick stir to fluff it up. Wash your fresh berries and pile them high on top of the pudding. You can also add a sprinkle of nuts or seeds for extra crunch before serving.
- Cook Time: 10 minutes (plus chilling)
