Matcha Chia Pudding is thick, creamy, and full of earthy, grassy, matcha flavour. Like a matcha latte in chia pudding form, it makes a really nutritious, satisfying, naturally gluten-free, make-ahead breakfast, that's packed with protein, fiber, healthy fats, and antioxidants.

Enjoy topped with fresh fruit for even more goodness. Fresh berries like raspberries work really well with the matcha flavour!

Ingredients

Here are the very simple ingredients you need to make this creamy Matcha Chia Seed Pudding recipe:

Matcha powder - A very finely ground green tea that is earthy, grassy, and naturally a little sweet. It's packed full of antioxidants and vitamins!
Chia seeds - Black chia seeds or white chia seeds are fine.
Non-dairy milk - With such limited ingredients, the quality of the milk you use in a chia pudding can make or break it. I recommend using a nice, creamy dairy-free milk that tastes really good. If it doesn't taste good then your chia pudding won't either. I really love to use either canned coconut milk, homemade cashew milk, oat milk, or almond milk, because they have lots of flavour and are really creamy.
Vanilla extract - For extra flavour and depth.
Maple syrup - This is used as a sweetener and is optional. The amount can be adjusted the amount to suit your tastes. You could also use a little sugar, date syrup, or agave instead.

How To Make Matcha Chia Pudding

Chia pudding is a simple, healthy pudding made by mixing chia seeds with milk. The seeds naturally swell and thicken in the liquid creating a creamy pudding texture.

To make Matcha Chia Pudding whisk the matcha green tea powder and the milk together, add the chia seeds, vanilla, and maple syrup then whisk really well again. Leave it to sit for a couple of minutes then give it another really good whisk. Note that I like to use a whisk because it separates the seeds better than just using a spoon.

Then refrigerate in an airtight container for a couple of hours (or up to a week) to give it time to thicken. It's such a great recipe for meal prep. You can then enjoy your creamy matcha chia pudding at your convenience!

Serving Suggestions

This delicious chia pudding makes a really simple and healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert. Enjoy it just as it is or have fun with toppings like:

Frozen Berry compote
Fresh fruit (strawberries, raspberries, passion fruit, mango, blueberries, or sliced banana work really well).
Vegan granola, chocolate coconut granola, or chopped nuts
Creamy vegan yogurt or coconut cream
Shaved chocolate or chocolate chips
Tahini, peanut butter, or almond butter

Make it look really pretty by layering the pudding in a serving glass with some vanilla chia pudding for contrast (to make a vanilla version follow this recipe but omit the matcha). It's also great served with overnight oats.
