Ingredients

Scale

Chia Pudding Base

  • 6 tbsp chia seeds (72 g)
  • 1.5 cups almond milk (375 mL)
  • 3 tbsp peanut butter (45 g)
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (30 mL)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Berry Topping

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen berries (140 g)
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chia pudding base: Whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, peanut butter, and maple syrup in a bowl until fully combined, ensuring there are no clumps of chia seeds. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the pudding to thicken.
  2. Cook the berries: Place the fresh or frozen berries in a small pot on the stovetop over low heat. Warm them gently until they become soft and mashable, then mash into a juicy mixture. Stir in the 1 tablespoon of chia seeds to thicken the berry mixture slightly.
  3. Assemble the pudding: Divide the warmed berry mixture evenly between two serving containers such as mason or Weck jars. Once the chia pudding has thickened, spoon it equally over the berry layers. You can enjoy as is or add toppings such as extra peanut butter, more berries, banana slices, nuts, or coconut yogurt to personalize your pudding.

Notes

  • For best results, allow the chia pudding to set for several hours or overnight to achieve a creamy texture.
  • You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based or dairy milk.
  • Use natural peanut butter without added sugar or oils for a healthier option.
  • The berry mixture can be served warm or at room temperature depending on preference.
  • Additional toppings like sliced banana, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts add texture and flavor.
