Creamy Berry Chia Pudding Recipe

I love this chia pudding recipe for so many reasons! The combination of creamy vanilla chia seed pudding and sweet berries is absolutely delicious. I also love how easy it is to add sweetness and tons of flavor to a chia pudding by including jam in the recipe. I used yummy Bonne Maman Strawberry Preserve and it was incredible!

Making chia pudding is so easy and it is perfect for meal prep. I love to make a big batch ahead of time to enjoy all week for breakfast or as a quick and healthy snack. Chia pudding is packed full of nutritional benefits from the chia seeds, and this recipe also includes berries which also pack a nutritional punch!

Can I soak chia seeds in oat milk?

Yes, you can! Oat milk is a great option to make chia pudding with. Soaking chia seeds in oat milk creates a rich and creamy chia pudding so oat milk is definitely a good milk option for making chia pudding.

Tips for making this recipe:

Let the chia pudding sit for at least 2 hours to thicken up well. If you let it soak overnight, you’ll end up with a thicker pudding because the chia seeds will have more time to absorb the liquid.
Store this chia pudding in the fridge covered for up to 5 days.
Be sure to whisk the chia seed mixture well. Mix everything together for at least a minute to make sure the chia seeds and oat milk are well incorporated.

Ingredients you'll need:

Chia seeds: These healthy superfood seeds adds lots of protein and nutrients.
Oat milk: I love the flavor and creaminess of oat milk, but you can make this recipe with any other preferred milk such as almond milk or coconut milk.
Vanilla extract: Gives the chia seed pudding a delicious sweet, vanilla flavor.
Berry preserve: You can use any type of berry preserve that you like best. I used strawberry for mine!
Fresh berries: This chia pudding is topped with lots of fresh berries - you can use whichever berries are in season or that you best prefer.

How to make chia pudding with oat milk & berries

Start by pouring the oat milk into a large mixing bowl. Then add the chia seeds and vanilla extract to it.

Whisk the milk and chia seeds together until well incorporated. Then place the mixture in the fridge for 2 hours to set. (The chia seeds will absorb the milk and expand to create a thick & creamy chia mixture)

To serve, add a spoonful of berry jam to the bottom of a small serving jar or glass. Spoon in the chia mixture and top with a dollop of jam and fresh berries.
