Berry Vanilla Chia Pudding

You know I love an easy prep, so this variation uses frozen berries, no prep required! The vanilla comes from both vanilla extract and protein powder, it gives summer-dessert vibes that feels a little fancy without trying too hard. This recipe gives you the measurements for each jar, add these measurements to each jar you make for the week!

Berry Vanilla Chia Pudding Ingredients

Chia Seeds: The powerhouse of chia pudding! Chia seeds are tiny but mighty—packed with fiber, omega-3s, and protein. When soaked in liquid, they expand into a gel-like texture that’s perfect for puddings and overnight breakfasts. In this recipe we’re blending them, which helps create a smooth texture.

Frozen Mixed Berries: A quick and easy way to add fruit to your breakfasts! These are perfect for chia pudding since they defrost slowly as the chia pudding sets. By the time you’re ready to enjoy them, the fruit is perfectly soft. You can easily swap for fresh chopped fruit if desired.

Maple Syrup: Unlike regular sugar, maple syrup blends smoothly into liquids and brings its own subtle flavor. In this chia pudding, it lightly sweetens the mix without overpowering it, keeping the treat balanced and not too rich.

Vanilla Protein Powder: This is what helps keep chia pudding filling, and gives a nice flavor boost that pairs well with the frozen berries. You’ll be adding 1 small scoop to each jar, if you don’t want to buy a full container, grab a few sample packs!
