Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries plus more for topping
Optional Toppings
  • sliced almonds or chopped nuts optional
  • shredded coconut optional
  • additional raspberries or mixed berries for topping
  • extra drizzle of maple syrup for serving

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well to mix everything evenly.
  2. Take the raspberries and mash them gently with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture. Add the mashed raspberries to the chia mixture and stir again.
  3. Cover the bowl and put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
  4. After the pudding has set, give it a good stir and serve it in bowls or glasses.
  5. Top it with sliced almonds, shredded coconut, fresh raspberries, or a drizzle of maple syrup.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Stir in a little more milk if it thickens too much. For added flavor, consider mixing in spices like cinnamon or nutmeg. You can substitute honey or agave syrup for maple syrup if preferred.
