Equipment

1 blender
mason jars

Ingredients

2 tablespoon chia seeds
⅓ cup blueberries (I suggest using frozen)
⅓ cup milk of choice, more as needed (I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk)
⅓ cup Greek yogurt (or Skyr)
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Add the blueberries, yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla to a blender and blend until smooth.
Add the chia seeds to the bottom of a glass bowl or mason jar.
Top with the blueberry milk. Give it a good stir. Let it set at least 10 minutes at room temperature and then stir again to avoid the seeds from clumping.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight and add your favorite toppings.
Hint: It will thicken up quite a bit in the fridge. If you prefer it thinner, wait to add another splash of milk after the 4 hours if needed.

Expert Tips

If you’re making a single serving, you can mix it right in a small bowl or mason jar by If making a big batch, I think it's easier to make it in a large bowl and then separate it into little jars once it's set.
Whisk the chia seeds vigorously and stir them again after 10 minutes to prevent them from clumping.
Use fresh chia seeds. Old chia seeds don't absorb liquid as effectively and will result in runny chia pudding.
If it's too thick, add more milk to thin it out a bit before eating it.
