Method
- Whisk milk and chia seeds in a bowl for one minute until chia seeds are evenly submerged throughout the milk. This is important because chia seeds can tend to clump together making for a not-so-smooth pudding in the morning.
- Add in maca, lucuma, baobab, cinnamon, vanilla and honey. Whisk again for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or preferably overnight. You will know it is ready once the milk sways if you tip the bowl to the side.
- Top with anything! I like banana, goji berries, coconut flakes and blueberries. Fresh fruit and nuts are great additions.
