Matcha Collagen Chia Seed Pudding
This matcha collagen chia seed pudding is naturally sweetened and made with just 3 ingredients: nut milk, chia seeds, and matcha collagen powder. It’s a delicious, sugar-free snack that can be meal prepped in batches and enjoyed throughout the week.
Matcha is one of those superfoods that’s packed with health-promoting benefits. Thanks to its generous amount of caffeine, chlorophyll, and L-theanine, you reap the benefits of reduced stress and anxiety, increased metabolism, reduced cholesterol, and heightened energy. Sounds like a win-win-win to me.
Why You’ll Love this Recipe
- It curbs your cravings for those less healthy, sugary snacks hiding away in the pantry.
- With just 3 ingredients, it’s one of the simplest snacks you can make.
- Being gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free, it’s 100% paleo-friendly.
Here’s What You Need
- Nut Milk: To transform the chia seeds from tough and dense to soft and chewy in minutes.
- Chia Seeds: To hold the pudding together. Once chia seeds absorb a liquid, they become gelatinous and thicken the liquid that they’re submerged in.
- Matcha Collagen Powder: To give the chia seed pudding its creamy matcha flavor.
Variations
- One of the best (and most fun) parts about chia seed pudding: The toppings! Feel free to get as creative as you want with your toppings—adding cacao nibs, nut butter, fresh berries, seeds, and more.
- For an extra burst of matcha flavor, sprinkle additional matcha collagen powder on top.
- To have a pre-made snack throughout the week, double, triple, or even quadruple the recipe!
