Mix the mashed raspberries, milk, yogurt, chia seeds, maple syrup, lemon juice and vanilla together in a mason jar. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any chia clumps.
If you're looking for additional chia pudding recipes, try this basic one, protein chia pudding, or chocolate chia mousse.
Fresh raspberries, mashed for the foundation and more for the topping, provide a fresh, tart flavor and bright color.
If you don't have fresh raspberries, you can use frozen ones instead. Just let them thaw somewhat before mashing them.
Chia seeds are the star of the show! They absorb moisture, resulting in a pudding-like texture, while also supplying fiber, omega-3 fatty acids and protein.
Milk - For this dish, I use unsweetened almond milk, but any dairy-free milk would suffice.
Greek yogurt gives a thick, creamy texture while also providing a protein boost. I recommend plain, full-fat, or 2% yogurt. Try to avoid anything containing added sugars!
If you require a sugar-free version, simply omit the sweetener or use a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit.
