Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together 1/4 cup chia seeds, 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 2: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until the chia seeds absorb the liquid and form a thick pudding-like texture.
Step 3: Before serving, stir the pudding gently to break up any clumps. Divide into serving bowls or glasses.
Step 4: Top each serving with 1 cup mixed berries and drizzle 2 tbsp almond butter over the top. Sprinkle with 1 tbsp toasted sliced almonds if desired for extra crunch.
Step 5: Serve chilled for a refreshing and nutritious breakfast or snack.
