Chia seeds are a nutrient-rich staple that will keep you satisfied and energized for hours. They’re rich in protein, antioxidants, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support heart health, strengthen bones, and assist in blood sugar management. Chia seeds also play a role in improving digestive function by promoting the growth of “good” gut bacteria. Their high fiber content contributes to relieving constipation and supporting overall digestive health.

What You'll Need
Almond Milk
Light and subtly nutty, almond milk adds a creamy texture with fewer calories, making it a great dairy-free alternative.
Chia Seeds
Rich in protein, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants, chia seeds support heart health, bone strength, and blood sugar management. They also promote healthy digestion and keep you feeling full and energized.
Coconut Milk
A creamy, dairy-free alternative that adds a rich texture to the pudding while providing healthy fats that support brain health and hormone balance. To reduce fat, replace some of the coconut milk with a lighter milk substitute like almond milk.
Honey Or Maple Syrup
Natural sweeteners that add a touch of sweetness to the pudding and compote without overpowering the delicate flavors of the berries.
Mixed Berries
A blend of berries adds vibrant color and a burst of flavor to the pudding. Berries are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber, supporting overall health and well-being.
Lime Juice
Freshly squeezed lime juice adds a zesty brightness to the berry compote, enhancing the natural sweetness of the berries.
Fresh Berries
As a topping, fresh berries add a beautiful presentation and extra texture to the pudding, making it a delightful treat for the eyes and the taste buds.
How to Make
100 Million Berries Chia Seed Pudding
Prepare the Chia Pudding
In a medium bowl, stir together chia seeds, coconut milk, almond milk and honey or maple syrup until combined. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, up to overnight (longer is better – if you can prepare the night before, that’s what we’d recommend).
Make the Berry Compote
Add mixed berries for the compote to a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until the berries break down and bubble, then stir in lime juice and honey or maple syrup. Use a fork to mash up any berries that are still whole. Remove from heat and cool completely (place in a bowl in the freezer to speed up the process).
Assemble the Pudding
Fill 4 bowls or glasses with equal amounts of the berry compote. Top with equal amounts of the chia seed pudding. Garnish with fresh berries and serve.
