Why is my chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk still runny?

How long does chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk keep in the fridge?
Chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk keeps for a few days in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Add fresh fruit just before serving when possible, since cut fruit can soften and spoil sooner than the pudding.
What are the best toppings for chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk?
Fresh berries, sliced banana, toasted nuts, cinnamon, or cocoa all work well on chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk. For extra sweetness, add fruit or a small drizzle of honey; honey does add sugar.

Does chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk help with weight loss?
Chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk does not cause weight loss by itself, but its fiber can help some people feel full. Sweet toppings and large portions can make it more energy-dense, so keep additions in mind.
Does chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk affect blood sugar?
Chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk is low in added sugar when made as described, but fruit, syrup, or sweet toppings can raise the meal's carbohydrate load. If you have diabetes, fit it into your individual meal plan.

What is Chia pudding (with unsweetened almond milk)?
Chia pudding with unsweetened almond milk is made by soaking chia seeds in almond milk until the mixture thickens. Chia seeds are native to Central America, while this simple, chilled pudding has become a popular make-ahead breakfast and snack in many places. Using unsweetened milk keeps the flavour mild, with a faint nuttiness from the seeds and almonds.
The texture is soft and spoonable, with tiny seeds that retain a slight crunch. Serve it cold with fresh fruit, or add nuts for more contrast; it also works as a quick breakfast when prepared the night before. It provides plenty of fibre, and the unsweetened base keeps added sugar low. If you prefer a thinner pudding, stir in a little more almond milk before serving.
