  • It takes five minutes to prepare and breakfast is ready for days
02 -
  • The pudding might look liquidy at first but trust the process because those seeds work magic
  • Give it a good stir before serving because the seeds do settle at the bottom
03 -
  • Whisk again after that first five minute rest or you will find stubborn chia clumps
  • Fresh berries are gorgeous but frozen ones work beautifully when they thaw into the pudding
