How to Make Vanilla Chia Pudding

Combine Ingredients: Add all your ingredients to a jar with a tight-fitting lid, ideally a 16 oz or larger size.
Shake Energetically: Shake the jar vigorously for about 1 minute to mix and suspend the chia seeds evenly.
Refrigerate: Place your jar in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight.
Shake Again: Give your jar a gentle shake every 20 minutes during the first hour of refrigeration to prevent clumping.
Serve and Enjoy: Stir the pudding well to combine any settled ingredients, and top it with your favorite fruits or granola.
