Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup raspberries
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, carefully measure out 1/4 cup of chia seeds, ensuring an accurate measurement.
- Pour 1 cup of cold almond milk over the chia seeds, stirring gently to prevent clumping and ensure even distribution.
- Add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture, whisking thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
- After chilling, remove the pudding from the refrigerator and give it a gentle stir to break up any potential clumps.
- Wash the fresh raspberries and pat them dry with a clean paper towel.
- Divide the chia pudding evenly between two serving glasses or bowls.
- Top each serving with fresh raspberries, arranging them attractively on the surface of the pudding.
- Optional: Garnish with a light sprinkle of additional chia seeds or a small mint leaf for extra visual appeal.
- Serve immediately and enjoy chilled for the best texture and flavor experience.
