Chia pudding with mango and blackberries

Healthy, delicious and filling, I make this for chia pudding for breakfast every week, changing up the berries depending on what looks good at the market that week.

Prep Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

Chia pudding

  • 1/4 cup whole white chia seeds
  • 1 cup milk of your choice (dairy, almond, anything goes)
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt
  • blackberries or any berries of your choice
  • large flake coconut for garnish

Mango puree

  • 1 1/2 cups chopped mango (about 2 medium)
  • 1 lemon (juiced)

Instructions

  1. Place chia seeds in a medium bowl (large enough to hold 2 cups). Add milk over top of seeds, stirring well with a fork. Let sit on counter for 2–3 minutes, and stir again. Transfer to fridge for a minimum of six hours, or overnight.

  2. Add yogurt to the chia seed mixture and stir well to combine to create a nice pudding texture.

  3. Combine mango and half of the lemon juice in a small food processor. Blend until well combined. Taste the puree—depending on how ripe and sweet your mangos are, you may want to either add a bit of sugar or honey if it tastes sour, or add more lemon juice if the mangos were very ripe and it is tasting too sweet.

  4. In your serving bowl, layer berries, some chia pudding, mango puree and a bit more chia pudding. (Use a third of the pudding per serving) Top with additional berries and garnish with coconut flakes. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

The mango puree is a great natural sweetener, but if you don't have time to make it, just use your favourite berries and drizzle with a bit of honey. Also tastes great with a bit of granola on top.
