Strawberries and Cream Chia Pudding is loaded with sweet, summer strawberries and has a creamy, dreamy texture. Perfect spring or summer make-ahead breakfast for all strawberry lovers!

Strawberry and Cream Chia Pudding

This vegan strawberry chia pudding is really easy to make, with just a few ingredients. It’s healthy, filling and packed full of protein, fiber and antioxidants. Make it with fresh strawberries or with frozen, which makes it a great breakfast all year round. Also try these vegan strawberry lemon muffins or this Strawberry Chia Jam that tastes great on everything.

Ingredients

  • Almond milk, or other non-dairy milk to keep this recipe vegan, oat milk or soy milk also tastes great. Normal milk can also be used for non vegan.
  • Chia seeds, they are high in fiber, antioxidants and protein.
  • Coconut yogurt or other plant based yoghurt for a vegan strawberry chia pudding. The thicker the yoghurt, the creamier the chia pudding.
  • Strawberries, fresh or frozen works well in this chia pudding recipe.
  • Maple syrup, or other liquid sweetener.
  • Vanilla extract, or vanilla bean paste.

See recipe card for quantities.

Instructions

Making this Strawberry Chia Pudding is fast and easy, perfect for meal-prep.

  1. Start by mixing the chia seeds and almond milk, let sit 1 min then mix well again. 
  2. Mash the stawberries well with a fork or use a food processor or blender for a smoother result. Add the stawberries and the rest of the ingredients to the chia and milk mixture. Stir well and taste, depending on the sweetness of your strawberries, add a little more maple syrup.
  3. Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or preferably over night. Top with some yoghurt and fresh stawberries.

Hint: For a vegan chia pudding, use a plant based yoghurt and milk. A thicker consistency will make the chia pudding extra creamy.

Tips for making this Strawberry Chia Pudding:

  • I love unsweetened almond milk and use it in most of my recipes. If you don’t, substitute for any other kind of milk you want.
  • My secret for a really creamy chia pudding is using a little yoghurt. The thicker the better! Here I used a greek style yoghurt, coconut yoghurt also works really well.
  • Stir the chia seeds into the milk mixture well, and then stir again! This will prevent lumps of chia seeds forming in you chia pudding.
  • For best results, let the chia pudding cill out in the fridge overnight. If you are short on time, chill for a minimum of 4 hours.
  • Taste the chia pudding before adding maple syrup, I don’t like it so sweet, sometimes I don’t add any sweetener at all. I find the almond milk has a sweet flavor on its own. Agave syrup or other liquid sweetener can also be used.
