Ingredient List
- Chia seeds: Any chia seeds will do, If you are Celiac, make sure they are certified Gluten-Free!
- Vanilla Extract: I use the Pure Madagascar Vanilla Extract by Simply Organic, but any vanilla extract on hand works.
- Honey: for a sweet touch, this is my go-to. I also like unprocessed maple syrup.
- Almond Milk: Any other plant milk works, If you are Celiac beware of oat milks, check for the certified Gluten-Free logo!
