Hi Beauties,
Coming at you with a delicious matcha and blueberry chia pudding recipe with oats! This chia seed pudding is vegan, dairy-free, low carb, gluten-free, and has no added sugar. This matcha and blueberry chia pudding recipe is an easy healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert!
This recipe for chia seed pudding is so simple to make and loaded with nutrients, that it’s a great snack or dessert. You can make this the night before and have a healthy breakfast on-the-go in the morning too!
I love making a big batch of chia pudding because you can use mason jars to store them in the fridge. This way you can grab your jar from the fridge on busy mornings and enjoy it wherever you want.
Chia seeds are extremely nutrient dense. These tiny little seeds are full of antioxidants, protein, fiber, calcium, omega-3 fatty acids and more! They are also great at absorbing water which makes them perfect for making chia seed pudding as they will absorb the almond milk (or other plant-based milk) and become thick like traditional pudding. Chia seeds also help lower cholesterol levels, improve digestion, help regulate blood sugar levels and boost energy levels.
Matcha is an antioxidant power house with loads of vitamins A & C as well as potassium, iron, magnesium and protein. It has become one of my favorite flavors for desserts – especially when paired with match berries like I did here! More on matcha later on in this post!

What are Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are actually a superfood. They're high in antioxidants, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, protein and calcium. They also help regulate your digestive system and support cardiovascular health—which means that chia pudding is a great way to get extra nutrients from this delicious treat!
Chia seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and calcium. In addition to being nutritious, they can be used as an egg substitute in this recipe or added to your morning yogurt so you get that extra boost of plant power before your day begins.
You can also use chia seed powder (the same way you would use matcha powder) to make vegan ice cream or milkshakes!
Chia seeds are a superfood that can help you achieve your health goals. Chia seeds are loaded with fiber and protein, which means they're great for helping you feel full longer and keeping your blood sugar levels balanced. They also contain antioxidants and minerals like iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium that can improve your overall health.
What is Matcha
Matcha is a special type of green tea that is grown in Japan. It's not your typical green tea; rather, matcha powder is made from ground whole leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Its unique flavor comes from the process by which it's grown and harvested, but what makes matcha so special?
Matcha has high levels of antioxidants—more than regular green tea—plus fiber, vitamins A, C and E and the amino acid L-theanine (which can help prevent stress). These nutrients make matcha an excellent natural source for detoxing after a stressful day or before bedtime. It also helps boost your metabolism to burn more fat while suppressing your appetite so you don't overeat at dinner!
Tips and Tricks for Chia Seed Pudding
- You can make several jars of this chia seed pudding and leave them in the fridge. I usually make 3-5 jars and eat them throughout the week. A great meal prep option!
- If you find the pudding too thick, dilute it with a little more milk. If it is too thin, sprinkle a few more chia seeds in it.
- Adjust your sweetener to preference. Taste it as you go and add more.
- Add some protein powder in it for an extra dose of muscle building magic!
