One of the critical steps in making the perfect Berry Bliss Chia Seed Pudding is allowing it to rest. Chia seeds are remarkable little ingredients that have the unique ability to absorb liquid and expand, creating a gel-like texture. This process begins as soon as the chia seeds are mixed with the liquid, but the key to achieving the ideal thickness is patience.

Ingredients
  

1/2 cup chia seeds

2 cups almond milk (or your preferred milk)

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey for a different flavor)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1 cup mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds with the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a whisk to mix thoroughly, ensuring there are no clumps of chia seeds and everything is evenly distributed.

    Allow the mixture to sit for about 10 minutes. After this time, give it another whisk to break up any clumps that may have developed, ensuring a smooth pudding texture.

      Once well-mixed, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid. Place it in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight. This step is crucial as it allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and swell up, transforming the mixture into a creamy pudding consistency.

        After the pudding has set, remove it from the refrigerator and stir well to achieve a uniform texture. If the pudding is thicker than you prefer, simply stir in a little extra almond milk until you reach your desired creaminess.

          To serve, spoon the chia seed pudding into bowls or glasses. For a visually appealing presentation, create layers by adding a handful of mixed berries between layers of pudding and topping with additional berries.

            For an extra touch, garnish with fresh mint leaves on top, adding a burst of color and flavor. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious berry bliss chia seed pudding!
