Description

This Berry Vanilla Chia Pudding is a delicious and nutritious make-ahead breakfast or snack that’s easy to prepare. Combining chia seeds with vanilla protein powder and mixed berries, it creates a creamy, satisfying pudding packed with fiber, protein, and antioxidants. Perfect for those who want a healthy, low-effort meal with a hint of natural sweetness.

Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup milk of choice (almond, coconut, soy, cow’s milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit

  • 1/4 cup frozen mixed berries

Optional Toppings

  • Additional mixed berries
  • Honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a jar, add the chia seeds, vanilla protein powder, and kosher salt. Mix these dry ingredients thoroughly to evenly distribute flavor and prevent clumping.
  2. Add liquids and berries: Pour in your choice of milk and the vanilla extract into the jar with the dry ingredients. Stir well to combine, ensuring there are no clumps of chia seeds settling at the bottom. Gently fold in the frozen mixed berries so they are evenly distributed in the mixture.
  3. Refrigerate to set: Seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. This resting period allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding consistency.
  4. Serve and garnish: Before enjoying, optionally top your chia pudding with additional fresh mixed berries and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness and texture.

Notes

  • Use any milk you prefer including dairy or plant-based options to suit dietary needs.
  • For best texture, ensure the pudding sets for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup according to taste or omit for a sugar-free version.
  • Protein powder adds extra nutrition; use vanilla flavor for best complementary taste.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to serve more people or prepare ahead.
