This recipe is easy, creamy, and a delicious recipe to say good morning to. Blackberry chia seed pudding makes a great breakfast, snack, or even a guilt-free dessert.
Mix the Ingredients: In a medium bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir thoroughly with a whisk to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and avoid clumping.
5 ½ tbsp chia seeds, 1 ½ cups almond milk, 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 pinch sea salt
Let It Sit: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken to a pudding-like consistency. Stir the pudding after the first 10 minutes to prevent the chia seeds from clumping.
Check Consistency: After chilling, the pudding should have a thick, creamy texture. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more plant milk and stir. If it's too watery you can add more chia seeds.
Layer and Serve: Smash some blackberries and layer between smashed blackberries and chia pudding. Mix in vanilla greek yogurt for added creaminess.
Vanilla Greek Yogurt, 1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries
Finally, top the blackberry chia pudding off with lots of blackberries, granola, or other toppings of choice.
Optional toppings: extra blackberries
