Vanilla Chai Chia Pudding

Ingredients

• 2 cups Bolthouse Farms^® Vanilla Chai Tea
• 1/2 cup Chia Seeds
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup (or less) maple syrup (or sub any sweetener)
• Optional: 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder

Preparation

1. For Blended/Smooth Version: Place all ingredients in blender and blend on high for 1-2 minutes until completely smooth.
2. For Whole Chia Seed Version: Blend all ingredients except chia seeds in a blender until smooth (including any added flavors, fruits or chocolate). Whisk in chia seeds.
3. Pour mixture into a jar or glass container and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to let gel. Stir or whisk a few times within the first hour to help it gel evenly. I prefer to make this at night to have ready for a fast breakfast the next day. It is also great to make in the morning for a delicious pre-made dessert at night.
