Prepare this creamy matcha chia pudding in under 10 minutes. It is a healthy breakfast or snack that works well for vegan diets and is perfect for making ahead for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other milk for dairy free)
  • 1 teaspoon ceremonial grade matcha powder
  • 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a jar or container, whisk together the almond milk, matcha powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until the matcha is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Add the chia seeds to the liquid mixture and whisk well for about 30 seconds to prevent clumping.
  3. Let the mixture sit on the counter for 5 minutes, then whisk again thoroughly. This step helps achieve a creamier texture.
  4. Cover the container and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the pudding has thickened.
  5. When ready to serve, stir the pudding. Add your favorite toppings like fresh berries, sliced mango, or granola for an energizing breakfast bowl.

Notes

  • For a higher protein chia pudding, substitute 1/4 cup of the almond milk with Greek yogurt or a scoop of your preferred vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
  • If you prefer a very thick pudding, use slightly less liquid or increase the chia seeds to 1/3 cup.
  • This recipe is excellent for meal prep and keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
