Equipment

  • Blender
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Airtight Container

Ingredients

Chia Pudding Base

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds organic preferred
  • 1 cup milk of choice almond, coconut, or oat milk
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey adjust to taste
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Strawberry Purée

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled, or frozen and thawed

Optional Toppings

  • fresh strawberries sliced
  • granola
  • mint leaves

Instructions

  • Wash and hull the strawberries, then blend them into a smooth purée. If using frozen berries, thaw them completely first.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together your milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt.
  • Slowly add the chia seeds to the liquid mixture while whisking continuously to prevent clumping.
  • Gently fold in the strawberry purée, creating swirls throughout the mixture. For a layered effect, you can reserve some purée for layering when serving.
  • Transfer the mixture to individual jars or a covered container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Before serving, stir the pudding and check the consistency. If too thick, add a little more milk; if too thin, add more chia seeds and wait 30 minutes.
  • Serve chilled with optional toppings such as fresh strawberry slices, granola, or mint leaves.

Notes

Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This pudding is perfect for meal prep - make a batch on Sunday for an easy grab-and-go breakfast all week long.
For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder when mixing the base ingredients.
The pudding will thicken more the longer it sits, so adjust the consistency to your preference.
