In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a jar, add chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until combined and thickened.

Continue whisking for another minute to ensure the chia seeds absorb the liquid and gel.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow chia seeds to swell.

Once chilled, stir to break up any clumps and achieve a smooth texture.

Serve chilled, topped with fruits, nuts or coconut flakes.
