Ingredients
  

1 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk)

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

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

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour the almond milk. Add the chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon if desired. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.

    Allow the mixture to rest for approximately 5 minutes. Then, whisk it again thoroughly. This step is crucial as it prevents the chia seeds from clumping together, ensuring an even distribution throughout the liquid.

      After whisking, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into a clean jar with a lid. Place it in the refrigerator to chill and set for a minimum of 4 hours, or for the best results, overnight. The chia seeds will absorb liquid and swell, transforming the mixture into a pudding-like consistency.

        Once the chia pudding has thickened, remove it from the refrigerator and give it a good stir to break up any clumps that may have formed.

          To serve, take your desired serving dishes and layer the chia pudding with the mixed berries. You can either layer them for a visual treat or simply top each serving of pudding with a generous handful of berries.

            For a touch of freshness and vibrant color, garnish each portion with a few fresh mint leaves.

              Serve the pudding chilled and relish the delightful blend of flavors in your nutritious berry chia pudding!
