This refreshing and healthy Matcha Chia Pudding combines antioxidant-rich matcha green tea and nutrient-dense chia seeds soaked in dairy-free milk, sweetened lightly with maple syrup. It is easy to prepare, requires no cooking, and is perfect for a nutritious breakfast or snack topped with fresh raspberries and almonds for added texture and flavor.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
  • 1 cup dairy-free milk
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • ½ tablespoon maple syrup

Toppings

  • Raspberries (fresh, as desired)
  • Almonds (sliced or whole, as desired)

Instructions

  1. Mix Matcha and Milk: In a large bowl, whisk together the matcha green tea powder and dairy-free milk until the mixture is smooth and free of clumps to ensure even flavor and consistency.
  2. Add Chia Seeds and Sweetener: Stir in the chia seeds and maple syrup thoroughly, making sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together. This will help the pudding set properly.
  3. Refrigerate to Set: Transfer the mixture into the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 2 hours or overnight. This resting time lets the chia seeds absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like texture.
  4. Add Toppings and Serve: Before serving, top the pudding with fresh raspberries and almonds or your preferred granola and nuts for added crunch and flavor.

Notes

  • You can use any type of dairy-free milk such as almond, coconut, or oat milk depending on your preference.
  • For a sweeter pudding, adjust the amount of maple syrup to taste.
  • Mix the matcha powder thoroughly to avoid lumps for a smoother pudding.
  • Chilling overnight enhances the texture, making it creamier and more flavorful.
  • Add other toppings like granola, coconut flakes, or seeds for variety.
