Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Blend blueberries with one cup of milk until smooth and evenly colored.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into a mixing bowl. Add remaining milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk thoroughly. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes, then whisk again to reduce clumping.
- Divide evenly among meal prep containers. Cover securely and place on a tray.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until thick, creamy, and spoonable.
- Add toppings before serving for the best texture and flavor contrast.
Notes
For a softer texture, decrease the chia seeds slightly. For a thicker pudding, add an extra tablespoon. Freeze individual portions without crunchy toppings and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Handle containers carefully during transport to preserve layers. Customize flavor with lemon zest, vanilla, cinnamon, or mixed berries. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
