1 cup coconut milk (carton not canned)
¼ cup chia seeds
½ tablespoon maple syrup, more or less to taste
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt
Toppings of choice: fresh berries or other fruit, granola, nuts, nut butter, etc

In a large bowl, mix 2 tablespoon hot milk with 2 teaspoon matcha green tea powder and whisk until smooth and not clumped.
In a high speed blender, blend together 1 cup coconut milk, ¼ cup chia seeds, 1/ tablespoon maple syrup, ¼ teaspoon vanilla, and ⅛ teaspoon salt until smooth.
Pour blender mixture into the bowl with the matcha and let sit for 5 minutes. Then, stir again to make sure there's no clumps, cover and put the mixture in the fridge to “set" for 1-2 hours or overnight. The chia pudding should be nice and thick, not liquidy. If it's not thick enough, continue to let sit until thickened or if you need it sooner, add another tablespoon of chia seeds, stir and refrigerate for another 30 minutes or so.
Chia pudding can be stored for up to 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When ready to eat, add additional toppings as desired.
