A quick and easy chia seed pudding parfait layered with creamy Greek yogurt and fresh mango, perfect for a wholesome breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds (black or white)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened almond milk (can substitute oat milk or dairy milk)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended, e.g., FAGE or Chobani)
  • 1 large ripe mango or 1 cup diced mango
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl or jar, combine 3 tablespoons of chia seeds with 1 cup (240 ml) of unsweetened almond milk. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup if using. Whisk or shake well to avoid clumps. This takes about 5 minutes.
  2. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight. Stir once after 2 hours to prevent clumping.
  3. Peel and dice one large ripe mango into bite-sized pieces, about 5 minutes.
  4. In serving glasses or bowls, layer ½ cup (120 ml) of chilled chia pudding, then ¼ cup (60 ml) of Greek yogurt, followed by ¼ cup (60 ml) of diced mango. Repeat layers until the glass is full, finishing with mango on top. Assembly takes about 5 minutes.
  5. Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a drizzle of honey if desired. Serve immediately or keep refrigerated until ready. Best served chilled but not frozen.

Notes

If pudding is too runny after chilling, stir in an additional tablespoon of chia seeds and let sit for another hour. Use ripe mangoes for best sweetness and aroma. For dairy-free, swap Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and almond milk with coconut milk. Layer yogurt just before serving to prevent sogginess. Add granola before serving for crunch.
