Blueberry Chia Granola Pudding
If your mornings are harried, this make-ahead berry good pudding is your ticket to enjoying a lightning-fast meal without sacrificing sound nutrition. When soaked in liquid, the chia forms a gel and provides a pudding-like texture. [callout]

Tip

Granola is a delicious, crunchy breakfast option. But some contain alarming amounts of added sugar. Generally, you’re looking for one that delivers no more than 10 g of sugar per 1/2 cup (125 mL) serving, ideally mostly from dried fruits, and has at least 3 g of dietary fibre. [/callout]

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) milk or plain nondairy milk
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) plain Greek yogurt
  • 2/3 cup (160 mL) fresh or frozen (thawed) blueberries, plus more for topping
  • 1 Tbsp (15 mL) maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) almond extract
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mL) chia seeds
  • 1/3 cup (80 mL) low-sugar granola
  • 1 Tbsp (15 mL) coconut flakes
