Ingredients

• 2 cups milk

• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cooking instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk the matcha powder with 2 tablespoons of the milk until smooth and lump-free. Whisk in the remaining milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. (about 3 min)
2. Whisk in the chia seeds until evenly distributed. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes, then whisk thoroughly again to prevent clumping. (about 10 min)
