Step 4: Stir to Prevent Clumping
After 30 minutes, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and give the mixture a good stir. This step is crucial to break up any clumps that may have formed and to ensure an even texture.

Step 5: Overnight Refrigeration
Cover the bowl again and return it to the refrigerator. Allow the pudding to sit for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best. This extended period allows the chia seeds to fully hydrate and the pudding to thicken.

Step 6: Check Consistency
In the morning, or after the 4-hour period, check the consistency of your pudding. It should be thick and creamy. If it’s too thick, you can add a bit more almond milk and stir until you reach the desired consistency.
