Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon Cream Chia Pudding
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk thoroughly until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Squeeze in the juice of one large lemon and add the zest, whisking for another minute.
  3. Sprinkle chia seeds into the mixture while whisking gently to avoid clumping. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Once chilled, stir gently with a spatula. If too thick, add a splash of almond milk to adjust the consistency.
  6. Serve in bowls or jars and top with fresh berries, granola, or crushed cookies if desired.
