Ingredients
  

1/2 cup chia seeds

2 cups almond milk (or your preferred milk variety)

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey for a different sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for warmth)

1 cup fresh blueberries (set aside some for garnish)

A pinch of sea salt

Toasted almonds or unsweetened shredded coconut (for an elegant garnish)

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, add the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon (if you decided to use it). Sprinkle in a pinch of sea salt. Whisk vigorously until all the ingredients are fully combined and no chia seeds clump together.

    Let it Sit: Allow the mixture to rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This resting period is crucial as it enables the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and begin to swell.

      Stir Again: After the 10 minutes have passed, give the mixture another thorough stir to break up any remaining clumps of chia seeds. This step ensures a smoother pudding texture.

        Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, making sure they're evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Reserve a few blueberries for garnishing each serving later.

          Refrigerate: Transfer the chia pudding mix into serving containers or jars and seal them with lids. Place the containers in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, although overnight is ideal for the perfect pudding texture as the chia seeds fully absorb the liquid.

            Serve: When you’re ready to eat, stir the pudding gently to mix well. Top each portion with remaining fresh blueberries, and for an added crunch, sprinkle with toasted almonds or shredded coconut.

              Enjoy: Grab a spoon and dive into your delightful, nutritious blueberry chia seed pudding! Savor each bite of this creamy, fruit-infused treat.
