Blueberry Chia Seed Pudding

Written by TELUS Health | May 4, 2020

Prep time: 10 minutes | Makes one serving

Chia seeds are a great source of fibre, healthy fats, calcium, and plant-based protein. These tiny seeds gel and form a pudding when combined with milk or water. Chia seed pudding serves as a quick and filling breakfast to help you start your day right, and it requires you to be in the kitchen for less than 10 minutes the night before!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup frozen blueberries

  • 1 Tsp. cinnamon

  • ½ Tsp. vanilla extract

  • ¾ cup milk or milk alternative

  • 2.5 Tbsp. chia seeds

  • 1 Tsp. maple syrup (optional, add this for a sweeter treat!)

Method

  1. Place all of your ingredients except for your chia seeds into a blender and blend until you have a smooth consistency, 1-2 minutes.

  2. Pour this liquid into a jar and thoroughly stir in your chia seeds.

  3. Let everything in your jar sit for 5 minutes.

  4. Stir one last time to get rid of any clumps.

  5. Place in the fridge overnight and serve chilled the next day.
