Ingredients
- 25 grams (2 tbsp) chia seeds
- 1 tbsp blueberry jam (sugar-free)
- 1 to 2 tsp maple syrup or honey (to taste)
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) milk of choice
Cheesecake Layer
- 80 grams (1/3 cup) Greek yogurt
- sweetener of choice (optional, to taste)
- a sprinkle of cocoa powder
Protein Powder Option
- 2 tbsp protein powder (recommendation: whey)
Instructions
In a bowl or mason jar, combine chia seeds, blueberry jam, maple syrup or honey and milk. Using a whisk or fork, stir to combine.
Cover the pudding and refrigerate overnight - or for at least 2 hours - to allow the chia to soak the milk.
Cheesecake Layer
Before serving, add Greek yogurt to a small bowl and stir until creamy - if you desire, mix in some more maple syrup (or honey or sweetener) for a sweeter yogurt.
Top blueberry chia pudding with the yogurt and sprinkle with cocoa powder.
Protein Powder Option
To make a higher protein chia pudding, stir in the chia mixture a couple of tablespoons of protein powder before refrigerating. Adjust with more milk to consistency, if required.
