Step 1: Mix Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine chia seeds, coconut milk, sweetener (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.

Step 2: Let It Rest

Allow the mixture to sit for about 5-10 minutes, then stir again to prevent the seeds from clumping together.

Step 3: Refrigerate

Transfer the mixture to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.

Step 4: Stir and Check Consistency

Before serving, stir the pudding again to ensure a smooth consistency. If it’s too thick, add a little more coconut milk to loosen it up.

Step 5: Add Toppings and Serve

Top with your favorite fruits, nuts, granola, or sweeteners before serving. Enjoy chilled!
