Matcha Chia Pudding

Matcha Chia Pudding blends matcha green tea powder with dairy-free milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup to create a creamy, subtly earthy pudding. The chia seeds thicken the mixture after refrigeration, forming a smooth yet slightly textured dessert or breakfast topped with fresh fruit and nuts. It offers a plant-based, make-ahead option with mild sweetness and matcha flavor.

Description

Matcha Chia Pudding is made by whisking matcha powder into dairy-free milk until smooth, then stirring in chia seeds and maple syrup. The mixture is chilled for at least two hours or overnight, during which the chia seeds absorb liquid and expand, thickening the pudding to a creamy consistency with gentle seed texture.

The earthy, mildly bitter notes of matcha balance with the subtle sweetness from maple syrup. Toppings such as raspberries and almonds add freshness and crunch, complementing the pudding's smoothness. This recipe is simple and does not rely on eggs or dairy, suitable for vegan preferences.

Prepared in individual jars or containers, this pudding is convenient for make-ahead breakfasts or snacks. It stores well refrigerated for up to one week and can be frozen in portions for longer storage.

Substitutions can include different milk types or sweeteners, but following the original ratio ensures the proper texture and flavor balance.
