Ingredients
- 0.25 cup Chia seeds
- 1 cup Almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Fresh strawberries
- 0.25 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1 small Banana
- 2 for serving Mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Nuts or seeds (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well until all the seeds are fully submerged and there are no clumps.
Step 2
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.
Step 3
While the chia pudding is setting, prepare your fruit by washing and slicing the strawberries and banana. Set aside.
Step 4
Once the chia pudding has thickened, give it a good stir to ensure an even texture.
Step 5
Divide the chia pudding into two serving glasses or bowls.
Step 6
Layer the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and banana on top of the chia pudding.
Step 7
Top with optional nuts or seeds for added crunch, if desired.
Step 8
Garnish each serving with fresh mint leaves.
Step 9
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to three days.
