There's so many ways to make different flavors of chia seed pudding. This one is vibrant, super simple and berrylicious! 

If you haven't used chia seeds before, get ready to discover their magic. They naturally swell and gel in liquid, making a unique pudding-like texture. They're also a complete protein and a brilliant source of omega 3. 

This blueberry chia seed pudding recipe is:

• Super easy
• Flavorful
• Nutritious
• Protein-rich
• Vegan & dairy-free
• Gluten-free 
• And fun to customize with your favorite toppings!

You need just four simple ingredients to make this easy blueberry chia pudding:

Blueberries: You can use fresh or frozen berries. Wild blueberries will give an even more vibrant color and taste. 

Non-dairy milk: We used unsweetened almond milk in this recipe which tastes delicious in combination with blueberries. For a more creamy chia pudding, you can use full-fat coconut milk, or for extra protein choose a variety such as soy milk.

Maple syrup: You can adjust the amount of maple syrup based on how sweet you prefer your pudding and to suit the ripeness of your berries.  

Chia seeds: Use fresher chia seeds for best results, as stale seeds can cause the pudding not to thicken so well. 

Here's how to make this chia pudding with blueberries.

Full detailed recipe and quantities are in the recipe card at the end of the post.

• Flavor boost: Add a ¼ teaspoon of vanilla extract or the zest of a lemon for some extra flavor
• Nut-Free: Use any nut-free milk, like oat milk. 
• Sweetener: You can swap the maple syrup for agave nectar or your preferred natural sweetener. 
• Change it up:  Switch the blueberries for another fruit like mango or peach for a refreshing twist. 

Enjoy your blueberry chia pudding as a satisfying breakfast, a nourishing snack, or a healthy dessert option.
