Creating your Chilled Overnight Chia is straightforward. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
2. Stir Well: Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia seeds.
3. Transfer to Containers: Pour the mixture into individual jars or containers, leaving some space at the top for expansion.
4. Refrigerate: Cover the jars with lids and place them in the refrigerator. Let them chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
5. Stir Again: Once the chia pudding has set, give it a good stir before serving to ensure a smooth texture.
6. Add Toppings: Top with your choice of fresh fruits, nuts, or seeds for added flavor and texture.
7. Serve: Enjoy your chilled overnight chia straight from the jar or transfer it to a bowl.
By following these steps, you will create a delicious and nutritious treat that is perfect for any time of the day.
