Description
Berry Chia Pudding is a creamy, fruity, and protein-packed recipe perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a guilt-free dessert. Made with just a few ingredients and naturally sweetened, it’s a healthy make-ahead option full of antioxidants and omega-3s.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- ½ cup chia seeds
- 2–3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Optional toppings: extra berries, coconut flakes, granola, mint
Instructions
- Combine Base: In a bowl or jar, whisk together almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir well to prevent clumping.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until thick and pudding-like.
- Layer with Berries: Before serving, layer or top the pudding with fresh or lightly mashed berries.
- Garnish: Add your favorite toppings like coconut, granola, or a sprig of mint for a fresh finish.
Notes
For a smoother texture, blend the pudding before chilling. Use frozen berries if fresh aren’t available. Keeps well for up to 4 days in the fridge — great for meal prep!
