Ingredients

Chia Pudding

  • ½ cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk or any dairy-free milk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch of salt

Strawberry Layer

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup optional, for juicier berries

Crunch Layer

  • 1-2 cups gluten-free granola

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together chia seeds, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) until thickened.
  • In a small bowl, toss sliced strawberries with maple syrup (if using). Let sit for 5–10 minutes to release juices.
  • Divide ingredients between 4 glasses or jars. Add a layer of chia pudding, then spoon over strawberries and juices, then top with granola. Repeat layers once more if desired.
  • Serve immediately, or refrigerate up to 24 hours (add granola just before serving for best texture).

Notes

Storage: Store in the refrigerator in airtight containers for up to 24 hours before serving (add granola just before serving).
