Matcha Chia Pudding with Fresh Fruit

Looking for a dessert that’s light, nourishing, and refreshing? This matcha chia pudding with fresh fruit is perfect for summer days. Easy to make, it’s naturally rich in fibre, plant-based protein, and omega-3s thanks to chia seeds—elevated by juicy seasonal fruit and the benefits of organic matcha for a healthy treat that still feels indulgent.

With their unique texture, chia seeds pair beautifully with matcha’s subtle, vegetal notes and the natural sweetness of fresh fruit. This pudding is ideal for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or a light dessert after a generous meal.

Prep time:

5 minutes prep, 2h30 resting time in the fridge

Ingredients (serves 4):

• 6 tbsp chia seeds
• 500 ml plant milk (oat or coconut work perfectly)
• 1 tsp of organic ceremonial matcha
• Fresh fruit (mango and strawberries recommended)
• 1 tbsp desiccated coconut
• 1 tsp agave syrup (optional)

Method:

1. Mix the ingredients: In a bowl, combine the chia seeds, plant milk, organic matcha, and agave syrup if you want a gentle sweetness. Whisk well to fully dissolve the matcha and avoid lumps.
2. Let it set: Stir for about 2 minutes so the chia seeds swell evenly without clumping. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2h30—or overnight for a firmer texture.
3. Add fruit and coconut: Once the pudding has set, spoon it into glasses or bowls. Top with fresh fruit (like mango and strawberries) and finish with a sprinkle of desiccated coconut for extra softness.

Tip:

For a deeper, more vibrant flavour, try using a mix of half plant milk and half water, then slightly increase the amount of organic matcha. Matcha lovers will love this more intense version.

Nutritional benefits:

This chia pudding is an excellent source of omega-3s, fibre, and plant-based protein thanks to chia seeds, while matcha contributes a powerful dose of antioxidants. The result: a dessert that’s both delicious and supportive for digestion and immune health.
