Method
 

  1. Whisk chia seeds, milk, mashed strawberries, maple syrup, and vanilla until evenly combined and smooth.
  2. Let mixture rest briefly, then stir again to prevent clumping and ensure even distribution.

  4. Stir before serving. Adjust texture with a splash of milk if needed. Add toppings and serve chilled.
