  • Total Time: 2 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt (full-fat for extra creaminess)
  • 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • ½ cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup (optional for sweetness)
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional for added flavor)
  • Toppings (optional): Fresh fruits (berries, banana slices), nuts (almonds, walnuts), granola, shredded coconut, or cinnamon

Instructions

  • Mix Ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together Greek Yogurt, chia seeds, milk, honey (if using), and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Refrigerate – Cover the bowl or transfer the mixture into a jar, then let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and develop a pudding-like texture.
  • Stir Before Serving – Before eating, give the mixture a good stir to redistribute the chia seeds evenly. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk to adjust the consistency.
  • Add Toppings – Top with fresh fruits, nuts, granola, or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and crunch.
  • Enjoy! – Serve chilled and enjoy as a satisfying, nutrient-packed meal or snack.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, blend the yogurt mixture before refrigerating.
  • Make it vegan by using dairy-free yogurt and plant-based milk like almond or coconut milk.
  • Boost the protein by adding a scoop of protein powder or nut butter.
  • Make-ahead option: Store in airtight containers for up to 3 days for a quick grab-and-go meal.
