- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/2 apple, diced (for topping)
- Pinch of ground nutmeg (optional)
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond milk, applesauce, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until well combined.
- Stir in chia seeds and mix thoroughly to prevent clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, allowing the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like consistency.
- Before serving, stir the pudding and add a splash of milk if needed to loosen it up.
- Top with diced apples and a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.
Notes
- Use any plant-based or dairy milk you prefer.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup.
