Ingredients

• 1/4 cup chia seeds
• 1 1/2 cups almond milk

• 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste, or 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 6 Medjool dates, pitted and quartered

Instructions

• Place all ingredients except dates in a mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined.
• Stir the quartered dates into the chia seed mixture until just combined.
