Do you fall into food trends? I am 100% guilty of this… Overnight oats took the world by storm and I was obsessed. Then came chia pudding and you better believe I jumped on that train. I love how simple chia pudding is to throw together and how customizable each batch can be!
This berry chia pudding is the ultimate summer treat. Perfect for breakfast, snack or dessert… I bet you’ll crave this on the regular!
Why are chia seeds healthy?
Chia seeds are a powerhouse ingredient. Just 2 tablespoons of chia seeds has 11 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein and 9 grams of fat (5 of those are omega-3 fatty acids). They are packed with antioxidants and may help with chronic inflammation as well as bone health. Chia seeds definitely live up to their “superfood” name! (Source)
Ingredients in Berry Chia Pudding
- Non-dairy milk – I like using almond milk or coconut milk but any dairy-free milk will work.
- Chia seeds – any chia seeds should work! If you find that your chia seeds are absorbing as much liquid as you’d like, it might be time to buy new chia seeds!
- Berries – I used a mixture of strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. Either fresh or frozen works for this recipe! You could also sub in different berries like blackberries or mulberries.
- Maple syrup – just a hint of this natural sweetener to balance the berries. Honey or agave works too.
- Vanilla extract – a flavor enhancer to round out the recipe!
Fresh or Frozen Berries?
For this berry chia pudding recipe, either works! I personally like the consistency of fresh berries but frozen berries work just as well. I do find that if I use fresh blueberries, I get more flavor if I mash them up a bit before adding to the mixture.
How to Make Berry Chia Pudding
STEP 1: Stir together all ingredients in a large bowl or mason jar. If you mix in a large bowl, transfer the mixture to a storage container with an airtight lid.
STEP 2: Store in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 8 hours to let the chia seeds absorb the liquid and flavor.
STEP 3: Enjoy cold!
Storage Instructions
You can keep your chia pudding in your airtight container or mason jar in the fridge for up to 5 days. Over time it will get thicker so you can thin it out with non-dairy milk if desired.

This mixed berry chia pudding is fantastic! Would you happen to know how many carbohydrates is in one serving ? I am a curious diabetic.😊
Apologies for the delay in responding! We’re slowly in the process of adding nutrition labels to our recipes. One has been added to this chia pudding. Note that it was calculated with 2 tbsp of maple syrup as I prefer things not too too sweet. So glad you enjoyed!
Can this be made with Fairlife Milk?
Made this recipe and it turned out to be a delicious breakfast! Thank you!
How long does it last ?
I enjoyed this recipe. Thanks!
WOW! I think this is the best chia seed pudding recipe I’ve tried! Thanks so much, I absolutely love it 🙂
Do you think it would turn out as well if I were to use ground chia seeds instead of whole?
What are your thoughts on making and freezing this up then taking out the night before you want to enjoy?? Also how long would it be good in the fridge?
I was so excited to try this but I waited too long and didn’t have berries. I tried this with about a cup of diced fresh peach instead and added a dash of cinnamon. It was wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
If using frozen berries, do you need to thaw them first?
No need!
