Ingredients
  

1/3 cup chia seeds

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Fresh berries and nuts (for topping)

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds and cocoa powder.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well blended.

      Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid clumping.

        Once combined, let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then whisk again to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.

          Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to individual serving jars or containers.

            Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to expand and create a pudding-like consistency.

              After chilling, stir the pudding to break up any clumps. Serve in bowls or jars, topped with fresh berries and nuts for added crunch and flavor.
