This Blueberry Protein Chia Seed Pudding is packed with protein, fiber, and antioxidants. It’s so easy to make and perfect for a quick breakfast or post-workout treat.
About This Recipe
If you’re looking for an easy breakfast or post-workout treat, this Blueberry Chia Pudding is great! It’s made with just a few simple ingredients like protein powder, chia seeds, and juicy blueberries.
Plus, it’s super easy to make! Just mix, chill, and enjoy!
I love chia seeds because they’re full of so many health benefits! They have a ton of fiber, are an excellent source of omega-3s and packed with protein. Seriously, they’re like a little nutrition powerhouse!
You can keep this pudding simple or add additional toppings like additional fresh fruit, nuts, nut butter, greek yogurt, honey, granola, etc.
Ingredients and Substitutions
- Milk: I used unsweetened cashew milk but any milk of choice works.
- Protein powder: Grab your favorite protein powder. I used vanilla protein powder. My favorite brands are Clean Simple Eats (code LILLIE to save 10%) or for a dairy-free option I love Active Stacks (code LILLIE to save 10%)!
- Chia seeds: Any type of chia seeds (black, white, or a mix) work for this recipe. Chia seeds are a great form of omega-3s and protein. They will absorb the liquid overnight and expand in size so don’t worry if it doesn’t look like a lot when initially mixed.
- Frozen blueberries: Frozen or fresh blueberries work for this recipe.
- Almond extract: You can also easily swap for vanilla extract.
- Sweetener: I prefer to use liquid sweetener like liquid stevia or monk fruit for this chia pudding. I personally just like how the liquid blends in but any type of sweetener will work! You can also use honey, maple syrup, agave, etc.
Dietary Adaptations
Naturally gluten free.
Dairy-free: Make sure to choose a dairy-free protein powder. My favorite dairy-free option is Active Stacks beef protein!
How To Make
- Combine everything in a jar or lidded container.
- Mix well, then let sit (on the counter or in the fridge) for fifteen minutes. Stir again to make sure the seeds or protein powder aren’t clumping, then refrigerate overnight.
- Enjoy the next day topped with fruit, nuts, nut butter, yogurt, whatever you like!
