Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and chopped
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
Optional Toppings:
- Additional fresh strawberries sliced
- Mint leaves
- Almond slivers or shredded coconut
Instructions
Prepare the Strawberry Mix:
- In a blender, combine the fresh strawberries, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Mix with Chia Seeds:
- Pour the strawberry mixture into a bowl, add the almond milk, and whisk to combine thoroughly.
- Add the chia seeds and stir until well mixed.
- Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent the chia seeds from clumping.
Refrigerate:
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, though overnight is best for flavors to meld and the pudding to set properly.
Serve:
- Once set, give the pudding a good stir to break up any clumps. Spoon into serving dishes.
- Garnish with additional fresh strawberry slices, mint leaves, and a sprinkle of almond slivers or shredded coconut if desired.
