This dairy-optional pudding relies on chia seeds swelling in milk to create a naturally thickened, gluten-free breakfast or dessert. A touch of honey and vanilla rounds out the flavor, while fresh berries add brightness and acidity. It's a make-ahead option that keeps well in the fridge for several days.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1 tablespoon sliced almonds, for garnish

Method

  1. In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt until the honey dissolves.

  2. Add the chia seeds to the milk mixture and whisk thoroughly to prevent clumping.

  3. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps that have formed.

  4. Cover and refrigerate the pudding for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency.

  5. Stir the chilled pudding well, dividing it evenly among four serving bowls or glasses.

  6. Top each serving with fresh mixed berries and a sprinkle of sliced almonds before serving.
