Yogurt Chia Pudding will be your new go-to recipe when you need a quick make-ahead breakfast. It's chockful of nutrients, has a dynamic taste and texture, and can be topped any way you like! I love to make a big batch on Sunday nights and have it ready to go all week.
Fresh fruit, nuts, or granola for topping (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix the yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth. If using protein powder, add everything to a blender rather than a bowl and blend until smooth.
1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 cup milk, 2 Tablespoons honey or maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 scoop
Stir in the chia seeds until they are evenly distributed. It may seem too liquid, but the chia seeds will absorb it as they chill.
1/4 cup chia seeds
Cover the bowl or transfer to 5 individual serving containers. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight. The chia seeds will expand and create a pudding consistency. Stir in a splash of milk at a time as needed if the pudding seems too thick.
Serve with your favorite fresh fruit, nut butter, or granola.
