In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping.

Pour the mixture into jars or containers with lids.

Seal the containers and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.

Before serving, stir the pudding and add your desired toppings such as mixed berries, granola, or coconut flakes.
