This Creamy Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding is the easiest grab-and-go meal prep! It’s thick, creamy, and loaded with vanilla flavor.
This recipe creates a rich and creamy chia seed pudding with a delicious vanilla flavor. It’s perfect for a healthy breakfast or a light dessert.
Yields: 1 serving
Prep time: 5 minutes
Chill time: 2 hours or overnight
Ingredients:
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
Splash of vanilla extract
Few dashes of cinnamon
2 tsp to 1 tbsp maple syrup (adjust to your sweetness preference)
Instructions:
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and maple syrup until the mixture is smooth and well combined. If you are using vanilla-flavored Greek yogurt, you may want to use less maple syrup.
Add the chia seeds to the liquid mixture and stir vigorously for about 30 seconds to a minute. This is a crucial step to prevent the seeds from clumping at the bottom.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir it once more to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. The longer it chills, the thicker the pudding will become.
When ready to serve, give the pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency.
Serving Suggestions:
Top with fresh berries, sliced bananas, or other fruits.
Add a sprinkle of granola or nuts for extra crunch.
Drizzle with a little extra maple syrup or a spoonful of nut butter.
