2m
Combine Ingredients
In a wide-mouth mason jar, combine the chia pudding base ingredients (almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup) and any chosen flavor add-ins. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly distributed and there are no clumps.
Chill
Seal the jar and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, or preferably overnight. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken the mixture into a pudding consistency.

Add Toppings
Once thickened, stir the chia pudding. Serve as is, or with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or granola.
Tips
For a smoother pudding, stir the mixture again after about 30 minutes of refrigeration to break up any gel clumps.
Chia pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it a great option for meal prep.
Adjust the amount of maple syrup to your preferred level of sweetness.
