Ingredients

• Chia seeds - 4 tablespoons
• Coconut milk (unsweetened) - 1 cup

Steps

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, almond butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
2. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until well combined and let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid.
