A nourishing breakfast bowl combining chia seeds and blueberries for a creamy and satisfying start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (for compote)
  • Squeeze of lemon juice (about 1/2 lemon)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • Extra fresh blueberries for topping
  • Granola (optional)
  • Sliced almonds (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a jar or bowl, combine chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and cinnamon. Stir well until incorporated.
  2. Allow it to rest for 5 minutes; stir again to prevent clumping. Let it sit for an additional 10 minutes and stir once more.
  3. Cover the jar and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours, until the mixture thickens into a pudding-like consistency.
  4. In a small pot, combine blueberries, water, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and lemon juice. Heat over medium heat for about 5 to 7 minutes, until the blueberries burst into a jammy mix.
  5. Remove from heat and let the blueberry compote cool to room temperature.
  6. After chilling, check the chia pudding. If too thick, stir in a splash more milk until preferred consistency is reached.
  7. Spoon the blueberry compote generously over the chia pudding, then add a dollop of Greek yogurt on top.
  8. Garnish with extra fresh blueberries, a sprinkle of granola, and sliced almonds if desired. Serve immediately!

Notes

This recipe can be prepared the night before for best flavor and texture. Adjust the sweetness of the compote based on berry tartness.
