Description
Blueberry Chia Seed Pudding is a creamy, fruity, easy recipe that makes a perfect quick breakfast, healthy snack, or simple make-ahead treat. Made with chia seeds, milk, blueberries, and a touch of maple syrup, it is one of my favorite breakfast ideas and food ideas for busy mornings because it is refreshing, filling, and incredibly easy to prepare.
Ingredients
2 cups milk
1/2 cup chia seeds
1 cup blueberries
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup granola
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl or jar, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
2. Stir in the chia seeds until they are evenly mixed into the liquid.
3. Fold in 1/2 cup of the blueberries, lightly crushing a few for extra flavor if desired.
4. Cover and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
5. Return the pudding to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick.
6. Spoon into serving glasses or jars and top with the remaining blueberries and granola before serving.
Notes
Do not skip the second stir after the first 20 to 30 minutes, because that is the easiest way to keep the chia seeds from clumping and make the pudding smooth and creamy.
