Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small pot, combine diced apples with a sprinkle of cinnamon and a splash of water. Heat over medium heat and simmer for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are softened and fragrant. If the mixture dries out, add a little more water. Stir in maple syrup and remove from heat.
  2. In another small pot, mix almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, cinnamon, cardamom, and ground ginger. Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer while stirring. Cook for about 2–3 minutes until thickened. Let sit for a couple of minutes to further thicken.
  3. Serve your warm chia pudding in bowls, spooning the thickened mixture first. Top each bowl with the warm cinnamon apples prepared earlier, sprinkle with pecans and drizzle almond butter on top. Enjoy right away!

Notes

Stir frequently to prevent clumping in the pudding, and adjust sweetness according to taste. For creamier pudding, soak chia seeds in almond milk before heating. Store separately in the fridge for make-ahead options.
