Description

Say good morning to creamy Matcha Chia Pudding with Greek yogurt--a super quick, protein and fiber-packed breakfast that's giving matcha latte vibes (and actually keeps you full!). We're talking delish, not too earthy vanilla matcha flavor, the ideal spoonable texture, and a kiss of natural sweetness. Meal prep a batch, grab a spoon, and consider breakfast handled!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened soy milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (I love Fage 2%)
  • 1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tsp matcha powder (I use ceremonial grade, culinary grade also works)
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt salt
  • Topping of choice: coconut, blueberries, strawberries, almond butter, etc

Instructions

  1. Place milk, yogurt, vanilla, and maple syrup in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Add chia seeds, matcha powder, and salt. Whisk again to combine. Let mixture thicken for 10 minutes on the counter, then whisk again. Taste and add more maple syrup to taste if needed. Yum!
  3. Refrigerate for another hour or up to 4 hours for an ever thicker texture. (You can also portion into 2-3 small containers.) Top with desired toppings and serve chilled!

Notes

Vegan: You can sub dairy free yogurt.
