Add chia seeds and almond milk to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk everything well until the seeds are evenly spread throughout the milk. This first mixing helps prevent the seeds from clumping together later.

Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon to the mixture. Whisk again until everything is well combined. Taste the mixture and add another small amount of maple syrup if you prefer sweeter pudding.

Let the mixture rest for about ten minutes. Whisk it again thoroughly. This second mixing is important because chia seeds settle quickly. It helps create a smoother and more evenly thickened pudding.

Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture into an airtight container. Refrigerate it for at least four hours. For the best texture, leave it in the refrigerator overnight.

Remove the pudding from the refrigerator and stir it gently. It should look thick and creamy. If it seems too thick, add one or two tablespoons of milk and stir well.

Wash and dry the strawberries and blueberries. Slice the strawberries and banana. Keep the fruit ready before assembling the bowls. Fresh toppings add bright color, natural sweetness, and a refreshing contrast.

Divide the chilled chia pudding between four serving bowls. Arrange strawberries, banana slices, and blueberries over each bowl. Add chopped almonds, coconut, and pumpkin seeds for extra crunch.

Drizzle a little honey over each bowl if desired. Serve the pudding cold. You can also add a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra warmth and flavor before enjoying your breakfast.
