A healthy chia seed pudding with almond milk and topped with a delicious no-sugar blueberry sauce. These are great for a healthy meal prep breakfast or afternoon snack.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, vanilla extract, sweetener, and chia seeds. Mix until completely combined. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then stir the mixture again to break up any chia clumps that may have formed.
Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge. Allow the pudding to set for at least 3 hours or ideally overnight. Start on the optional blueberry sauce (shown below) while the pudding sets in the fridge.
Remove the pudding from the fridge and stir before serving. To create the parfaits, split the pudding into 2 jars or bowls and top it with the blueberry sauce. You can also garnish with fresh fruit or granola too. Enjoy!
Blueberry Sauce
In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, and lemon juice over medium/high heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce the heat to a simmer.
Mash the blueberries and add the cornstarch. Allow to simmer until the sauce begins to thicken.
Remove from the heat and allow the sauce to cool before spooning over the chia puddings.
Notes
Our no sugar blueberry sauce is delicious but if you're short on time, totally optional! You can also add a dollop of your favorite jam on top of the chia pudding or a sprinkle of fresh berries.
You can easily double or triple this recipe for the week, they're last in the fridge for up to 5 days.
To make the recipe lower carb, you can use a sweetener like monk fruit or stevia to taste instead of honey.
