Ingredients
  

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your choice of milk)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1 medium apple, peeled and diced into small pieces

1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 cup granola (for crunchy topping)

Optional toppings: chopped walnuts, raisins, or a dollop of your favorite yogurt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a mixing bowl, pour in the almond milk and add the chia seeds along with the maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Use a whisk to thoroughly combine the ingredients, ensuring that the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the liquid.

    Incorporate the Apple: Gently fold the diced apple into the mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Make sure the apple pieces are well-coated in the pudding mix, enhancing their flavor during the chilling process.

      Chill: Transfer the mixture into a mason jar or individual serving containers. Seal them tightly to prevent any spills, and place them in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 4-6 hours). This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like consistency.

        Serve: The next morning, remove the pudding from the refrigerator and give it a thorough stir. If you find the texture is too thick for your liking, add a splash of milk and mix until you reach your desired creaminess.

          Top It Off: Generously sprinkle granola on top to add a delightful crunch. If you enjoy an extra hint of warmth, consider dusting the top with additional cinnamon. Feel free to enhance your pudding further with optional toppings such as chopped walnuts, raisins, or a refreshing dollop of yogurt.

            Enjoy: Grab a spoon and dig into your delicious apple pie-flavored chia pudding, relishing in this healthy and satisfying breakfast treat!
