Ingredients

• 1/2 cup rolled oats

• 3 tablespoons chia seeds

• 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

• 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds

• 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

• 1/4 cup almonds, chopped

• 2 tablespoons cacao nibs

• 1 tablespoon bee pollen

Instructions

1. Mix the Base:

   • In a medium bowl, combine the chia seeds, and almond milk. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.

2. Sweeten and Refrigerate:

   • Add the honey to the mixture and stir again. Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture to a mason jar. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds and oats to soak and thicken.

3. Prepare the Toppings:

   • While the chia pudding is setting, prepare your toppings by chopping the walnuts and almonds.

4. Assemble the Pudding:

   • Once the chia pudding has thickened, give it a good stir. Divide it into individual serving bowls or jars.

5. Add the Toppings:

   • Top each serving with oats, pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts, chopped almonds, cacao nibs, bee pollen, and fresh blueberries.

6. Serve:

   • Drizzle a little extra honey on top if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy this nutritious and delicious chia pudding as a perfect breakfast or snack.

Storage

• Store any leftover chia pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Add fresh toppings just before serving to maintain their crunch and flavor.
