Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
- Whisk or Small Blender For smoothing the protein powder.
- Jars or Containers with Lids For storage and serving.
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup (70g) frozen wild blueberries
- 6 tbsp (60g) chia seeds
- 1 tbsp (21g) honey or maple syrup
- 1.25 cup (300ml) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 scoop (31g) vanilla protein powder
Instructions
- Place the frozen blueberries in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 45-60 seconds until soft and juicy. Use a fork to mash them into a chunky sauce.
- In a medium mixing bowl or a large jar, combine the mashed blueberries, chia seeds, and honey. Stir until well mixed.
- In a separate cup or small blender, whisk or blend the almond milk and protein powder together until completely smooth and free of lumps.
- Pour the smooth milk mixture into the bowl with the chia seeds and blueberries. Stir vigorously for a full minute to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and won't clump.
- Cover the bowl or divide the mixture evenly between four small jars or containers with lids.
- Place in the refrigerator to set for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight. The pudding will thicken to a perfect, spoonable consistency.
- Once set, give the pudding a final stir. Serve cold with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, nuts, granola, or a drizzle of nut butter.
Notes
Pro Tips: For the smoothest texture, blend the milk and protein powder together before mixing with the chia seeds to eliminate any chalky clumps. Stir the mixture thoroughly for a full minute after combining to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together as they set. If your pudding is too thick in the morning, simply stir in an extra splash of milk. For the best results, use a whey/casein blend protein powder like PEScience, as it thickens exceptionally well. This pudding keeps perfectly in the fridge for 4-5 days, making it ideal for weekly meal prep.
