Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients - Start by collecting all your ingredients. This will make the process smooth and enjoyable.
Step 2: Mix the Yogurt and Chia Seeds - In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Stir well until the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt.
Step 3: Sweeten the Mixture - Add 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the yogurt-chia mixture. Stir until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
Step 4: Let It Sit - Cover the mixing bowl and let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the yogurt and expand, creating a delightful texture.
Step 5: Serve and Top - Once the chia seeds have plumped up, give the mixture a good stir. Spoon the chia seeds in yogurt into serving bowls and top with fresh fruit of your choice, such as berries or banana slices. Enjoy immediately!
