Chia seeds swell overnight in matcha-infused milk to create a thick, pudding-like texture studded with tiny seeds. The earthy, slightly bitter green tea balances a touch of sweetness, making this a naturally gluten-free breakfast or snack. Serve chilled with fresh fruit or a drizzle of honey for added contrast.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds
  • 2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh berries, for topping

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the matcha powder into about 1/4 cup of the almond milk until no clumps remain.

  2. Add the remaining almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl and whisk until well combined.

  3. Add the chia seeds and whisk thoroughly to distribute them evenly and prevent clumping.

  4. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 10 minutes, then whisk again to break up any settled chia seeds.

  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency.

  6. Divide the pudding among four serving bowls or jars and top with fresh berries before serving.
