Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine chia seeds, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
After refrigeration, check the pudding's consistency. If it's too thick, add a splash of almond milk and stir.
Divide the pudding into serving bowls or jars. Top with fresh berries and shredded coconut if desired.
For extra flavor, drizzle with additional honey or maple syrup before serving.
Enjoy immediately or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
