Hi there, Ameera here!
We absolutely loved this tasty chia pudding! Yasmeen devoured it, declaring it a breakfast game-changer and a snack-time superstar. The secret is that gentle vanilla kiss and the way the chia seeds soak up the plant milk into a luscious, almost custard-like consistency.

Tips for Success:
- Flavor Profile: This Blended Chia Pudding is a classic chia seed pudding consisting of plant milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup with a hint of vanilla and a tiny bit of sea salt to bring out the sweetness. Serve it with some fresh chopped fruit for a delightful breakfast treat or snack.
- Health Benefits of Chia Seeds: Chia seeds are packed with a ton of health benefits. They are packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants, which can contribute to improved heart health, better digestion, and reduced inflammation. Additionally, chia seeds can aid in weight management, stabilize blood sugar levels, and support bone health.
- Consistency: The texture is somewhat a cross between pudding and porridge.
- Sweetness: The good news is that you can taste the sweetness of the pudding to determine if you need to ramp up the sweetness. Feel free to ramp up the maple syrup as needed. Keep in mind that adding fresh fruit will also add sweetness to the pudding.
- Taste Test Before Committing: The beauty of this recipe is that you can literally taste it before refrigerating to see if you need to add more maple syrup or you may wish to ramp up the vanilla.
- Light Coconut Milk Substitutions: The can of light coconut milk can be substituted with 2 cups of unsweetened plain plant milk.
- Why Add the Ingredients in the Order Presented? This is to prevent the chia seeds from sticking to the blades and clumping at the bottom of the blender. Additionally, it’s perfectly fine if you do not completely blend all the chia seeds.
- Adding Fruit: We suggest keeping the pudding in a bowl separate from the fruit, then assembling individual pudding servings by adding the fruit right before consuming. By adding the fruit only before serving allows the pudding to last longer in the fridge.
Leftovers and Freezing:
Leftovers will generally keep 4 to 5 days in the refrigerator. Store in a covered air-tight container.
This dish cannot be frozen.
Pantry Products:
- Sea Salt: Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.
Kitchen Equipment:
- High-speed blender
- Glass container (for storing the pudding overnight)
- For serving: Glass mugs with lids (we used 4 pcs Set Overnight Oats Containers with Bamboo Lids (feel free to use your favorite containers)

Sounds delicious and very rich! However, I think your freezing directions and kitchen equipment got mixed up with a different recipe 🙂
