- 0.5 cup chia seeds
- 1 tbsp maple syrup

Combine Pudding Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the dairy-free milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until everything is well blended and no chia seeds are clumping together.
Refrigerate Overnight
Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. The mixture should become thick and creamy. If it seems too thin, stir in an additional tablespoon of chia seeds and refrigerate for another hour.
