Method
 

Step 1: Combine Ingredients
  1. In a large mixing bowl, pour in your choice of milk or non-dairy milk, followed by the chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Add the molasses, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and ground ginger. Whisk everything together thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and smooth, ensuring no clumps remain.
Step 2: Rest the Mixture
  1. Cover your bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and place it in the refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and start thickening the pudding.
Step 3: Chill for Perfect Texture
  1. After stirring, leave the Gingerbread Chia Pudding in the refrigerator for a minimum of 3 to 4 hours or ideally overnight.
Step 4: Final Stir and Serve
  1. Before serving, gently stir the pudding to ensure a smooth finish. Adjust sweetness with more maple syrup if necessary and serve in bowls, optionally topped with fruits, nuts, or spices.
