Ingredients

Scale

Pudding Base

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Berry Mixture

  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (plus more for topping)

Toppings

  • Sliced almonds or chopped nuts
  • Shredded coconut
  • Additional raspberries or mixed berries
  • Extra drizzle of maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Mix the Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined to form the pudding base. Stir well to ensure chia seeds are evenly distributed.
  2. Mash the Raspberries: Gently mash the raspberries with a fork to release their juices, then stir them into the chia mixture to naturally infuse the pudding with a fresh berry flavor. For a smoother pudding, you can blend the raspberries before mixing.
  3. Let It Set: Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture to an airtight container, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight until the pudding thickens and reaches a creamy consistency. If the pudding becomes too thick after chilling, add a splash of milk to loosen it to your preferred texture.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Stir the pudding to combine, then divide it into serving cups. Top with sliced almonds or chopped nuts, shredded coconut, extra fresh raspberries or mixed berries, and a drizzle of maple syrup for added sweetness and texture. For an extra treat, layer with granola or yogurt before serving.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, blend the raspberries before mixing into the chia pudding.
  • Stir the chia mixture again about 5 minutes after mixing to prevent clumping of the seeds.
  • If the pudding is too thick after refrigeration, add a splash of your preferred milk to loosen it to your desired consistency.
  • Experiment with different toppings such as granola or yogurt for additional texture and flavor variety.
  • This pudding can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator for convenience.
