Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1 cup Milk Any milk alternative, unsweetened versions work best.
  • 1/4 cup Chia Seeds Both black and white are great options.
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup Honey or other sweeteners are good substitutions.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Use pure vanilla for the best outcome.
  • 1 pinch Sea Salt Optional but creates a lovely balance.

Equipment

  • 16-ounce jar with fitted lid

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a 16-ounce jar with a fitted lid, pour in your choice of milk, followed by the chia seeds. Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a dash of sea salt.
  2. Seal the jar tightly and shake vigorously for about 1 minute to ensure that the chia seeds are entirely suspended in the liquid.
  3. Refrigerate the jar for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight. Shake the jar every 20 minutes during the first hour.
  4. Once set, give the pudding a gentle shake and serve cold, optionally adding fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of chocolate.
