Description

Creamy vanilla-infused chia pudding paired with fresh fruits and crunchy granola for a wholesome, dairy-free breakfast or snack. Naturally sweetened and rich in nutrients, it’s a perfect energizing bowl.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1/2 banana, sliced
  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 1/4 cup raspberries
  • 23 strawberries, sliced
  • 1/4 cup granola (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
  2. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until thick and creamy.
  4. When ready to serve, stir the pudding well and spoon into bowls.
  5. Top with banana slices, berries, and granola just before serving.
  6. Optional: Drizzle with extra maple syrup or add a spoonful of nut butter for richness.

Notes
