Following are some awesome tips and variations to make blueberry chia seed pudding:
-
I have used frozen blueberries for this recipe because they give a nice thick texture. However, you can surely use fresh ones.
-
If you don’t have enough blueberries, then you can also add other berries like strawberry or raspberry.
-
This recipe yields 2 jar sized servings. But you can easily double or triple this recipe as per your need.
-
If you like the denser and thick smoothie-like texture of your pudding, then you can also blend chia seeds with the blueberries.
-
Addition of cinnamon to the blueberry based dishes takes them to the next level. So it is highly recommended.
-
You can adjust the texture to your pudding according to your taste preference. If you think your pudding is too thick and dense then you can add 2-3 tablespoons of chilled milk (or as needed) and mix well. If by any chance your pudding is too runny, then add 1-2 teaspoon of chia seeds to the pudding and chill for 30 minutes.
-
Chia seeds pudding stays fresh for up to 2-3 days when stored in sealed jars in the refrigerator.
-
I personally like to use honey because it is higher in antioxidants, lower in fructose-content, is less processed, and has many other health benefits. Feel free to choose any other sweetener.
-
You can also add 1-2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt or dairy-free yogurt to this pudding recipe.
-
To make it more fuller, you can also use some granola or muesli toppings.
-
Make sure to always add the topping right before serving.
-
Add banans to make it banana bluberry chia pudding.
-
For a more aromatic flavour, you can also add some cardamom powder to this pudding.
