Blended with Greek yogurt and just a touch of maple syrup, this smoothie has a thick, pudding-like texture that feels indulgent—but is actually super nourishing.
Why This Recipe Works
Pro Tips & Notes
Let the chia seeds work their magic
If you want more of a “chia pudding” texture, let it sit for a few minutes after blending.
Use frozen fruit for thickness
Frozen blueberries (or frozen strawberries) will make this extra thick and cold.
Adjust sweetness
Taste after blending—add more maple syrup if you prefer it sweeter.
Make it higher protein
Add the extra Greek yogurt or even a scoop of protein powder if desired.
Blend well
Chia seeds can clump—blend thoroughly for the smoothest texture.

Storage Tips
A creamy berry chia seed pudding smoothie made with Greek yogurt, strawberries, and blueberries—high protein, naturally sweet, and perfect for breakfast.
Prepare the chia seed base the night before if you can by mixing the milk, greek yogurt, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, almond extract, and chia seeds together. Cover it and store in the fridge for at least 2 hours but overnight is best.
Add half of the chia seed base to the blender for one serving or the full base recipe for 2-3 servings. Add the remaining ingredients into the blender.
Add 2 tablespoons of milk at a time and blend again until you reach your desired thickness.
Enjoy this delicious and healthy smoothie!!
