Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, chia seeds, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Stir well until there are no lumps.
- Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the chia seeds have absorbed the liquid and formed a pudding-like texture.
- In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese until creamy and smooth.
Layering
- Once the chia pudding is ready, layer it in serving cups starting with a layer of the pudding, followed by a layer of diced strawberries, and then a layer of cream cheese mixture.
- Repeat the layers until the cups are full, finishing with a layer of strawberries on top.
- Top with graham cracker crumbs for a crunchy finish. Enjoy!
Notes
Add a splash of lemon juice to the cream cheese for a tangy kick. Mix in other fruits like blueberries or bananas for a fun twist. Serve with mint leaves on top for a fresh touch.
