    Overnight Oat Chia Pudding Recipe - Healthy and delicious breakfast pudding made with rolled oats, chia seeds, yogurt and milk.

    We love this Overnight Oat chia Pudding recipe in our home because it is a super easy, delicious and healthy way to start the day. Not only is this recipe all of those things, but it is also light yet filling.

    Ingredients you need to make Overnight Oat Chia Pudding:

    Rolled Oats - Use your favorite brand of Old Fashioned Rolled Oats.

    Chia Seeds - You'll need about one and a half tablespoons of chia seeds for this recipe.

    Almond Milk - We used almond milk, but you can use your favorite milk.

    Greek Yogurt - I like to use Kirklands Organic Greek Yogurt, but you can use any yogurt you prefer!

    Cinnamon - Adds a nice warm spice to the overnight oats. You can omit cinnamon if you don't like it.

    Maple Syrup - I prefer to use a pure maple syrup because it doesn't have all the unhealthy add-ins. You can also use raw honey as a sweetener.

    Optional Add-Ins - You can top your pudding with fresh fruit, your favorite nut butters, shredded coconut and so much more.

    Why are Overnight Oats healthy?

    Overnight oats are loaded with oats, greek yogurt, and chia seeds. Rolled oats are a good prebiotic and Greek Yogurt is an excellent probiotic which are both gut friendly.

    Chia seeds are also known to have many health benefits. They are loaded with heart healthy omega 3s, magnesium, fiber, healthy fats and more.

    When you top your pudding with fresh fruit and nuts, you're adding even more health benefits to a delicious breakfast.

      I LOVE this recipe! So good. I don’t like the consistency of overnight oats but the chia and yogurt make this so creamy. Thank you! I add stuff to bump up the protein and it’s a great filling tasty healthy breakfast.

      This turned out amazing! I recently tried something similar from tropical smoothie and wanted to make it at home. I found this recipe and just added strawberry, banana and granola. So delicious 😋
