Pro Tips for the Best Matcha Chia Pudding

  • Stir the chia seeds again after 10 minutes of soaking to prevent clumping before refrigerating overnight.
  • Sift the matcha thoroughly into the yoghurt to avoid any powdery clumps in the final texture.
  • Use fresh, ripe berries for the best natural sweetness and colour contrast against the matcha.
  • Add granola just before serving so it stays crisp rather than softening in the layers.

FAQs

1. How long does the chia pudding last in the fridge?

The chia pudding will keep well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days, making it a great meal-prep option.

2. Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes! Use your favourite plant-based milk and yoghurt, coconut or oat-based options both work beautifully with matcha.

3. Can I use frozen berries?

Yes, frozen berries work well, just let them thaw slightly before layering for the best texture and less excess liquid.

4. Can I sweeten this recipe?

Absolutely. Add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the chia pudding or yoghurt layer if you prefer a sweeter result.
