by The Healthy Lab — ★★★★★ Leave a review

Inspired by Baked by Melissa, this Healthy Strawberry Chia Pudding is ultra-creamy, naturally sweetened, and loaded with fiber and protein! Prep it in just 5 minutes for an effortless grab-and-go breakfast.

Blending ripe strawberries directly into the liquid base creates a vibrant pink, strawberry-milk taste in every single spoonful. Thick Greek yogurt elevates the texture while adding a satisfying protein punch.

Fresh strawberries and chia pudding layers

Chia seeds soak up the sweet strawberry milk, creating a rich pudding texture without any refined sugar or artificial flavors. Keep a few jars in the fridge for up to 5 days for easy healthy mornings!

Instructions

1

Blend Strawberries: Place 2 cups of strawberries in a blender and process until completely smooth.

Whisk Base: In a mixing bowl, pour in the strawberry puree and whisk in the Greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
3

First Chill & Re-whisk: Refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes, then remove and whisk thoroughly to break up any chia seed clumps.
4

Set in Fridge: Divide into individual glass jars and refrigerate for at least 3 more hours (or overnight) until fully set and thick.
5

Top & Serve: Top with freshly sliced strawberries before serving. Enjoy cold!

Notes & Tips

🍓 Berry Puree Trick: Blending the strawberries ensures the strawberry flavor infuses every bite rather than sitting as a separate layer.
🥛 Milk Choice: Any milk works great! Oat milk or almond milk keeps it light, while whole dairy milk adds extra richness.
🌀 Crucial Re-Whisk Step: Don’t skip whisking 30 minutes into chilling! This prevents chia seeds from sinking to the bottom and clumping.
🥡 Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days for easy meal prep.
