Ingredients

1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any milk of choice
1 teaspoon matcha powder
1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup chia seeds

Instructions

In a jar or small bowl, combine the almond milk, matcha powder, maple syrup, and vanilla. Whisk well until the matcha powder fully dissolves and the mixture looks smooth and even in color.
Add the chia seeds and stir until they are evenly mixed into the liquid. Make sure no seeds are clumped together.
Cover the jar or bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 3 hours, or overnight. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like texture.
Before serving, stir the pudding again to smooth out the texture. Divide into two jars or bowls and add toppings if desired.

Notes

Choose a good-quality matcha for better flavor and color. Culinary-grade matcha works well for this recipe, and entry-level ceremonial matcha can also be used.

Start with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey. Taste and add more if you prefer a sweeter pudding.

If the pudding becomes too thick after chilling, mix in a small splash of milk and stir until smooth.

Store the pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 to 5 days. Stir before serving for the best texture.
