Let’s face it we are all trying to eat healthier these days and it’s not easy. Whether you are following the keto diet or not these 10 Keto Chia Seed Puddings will make a great breakfast or late afternoon snack.
It’s simple to prep ahead and made with only three ingredients – chia seeds, almond milk and stevia. In fact, you can make three servings of this Chocolate Chia Pudding in about 15 minutes.
HOW HEALTHY IS CHIA SEED PUDDING?
Well, it’s packed with goodness!
- calcium
- phosphorus
- fiber
- protein
- omega-3 fatty acids
One serving contains 11 grams of fiber, 12 grams of carbs, 4 grams of protein and 9 grams of fat. So that means only 1 net carb.
How to Make Chia Pudding
Chia seed pudding is so easy to make. All you do is mix chia seeds with milk of your choice. I like to play around with the ratio a bit to get a consistency I like or you can just follow one of the recipes below. Generally I use 2 tbsp of chia seeds to every half cup of milk.
If you are keto you can add stevia to sweeten to taste or if you are not keto you can use maple syrup or honey. After it is mixed well store it in the fridge overnight or at least three hours. It is set when the seeds swell to double their size.
Toppings are a must!

I still haven’t tried chia seed pudding but these puddings look so gorgeous I really think I should try it ASAP!
this might sound crazy, but i have never had chia seeds before. I know of them, just never tried them. This is a great list of different ways i can try them i pudding though. I def need to!
I love chia seed pudding and your roundup is awesome. I’ve decided I’m going to try them in order! Can’t wait to figure out which is my favorite!
I’m obsessed with chia pudding and love seeing all these great ideas. Thank you!
So many delicious recipes. Thanks for the inspiration!
These puddings all look so decadent you wouldn’t think they could be this healthy:-)
I think chia puddings are the prettiest! I love your chocolatey version ~ what a way to start the day 🙂
Wow, what an amazing looking collection of Keto recipes. I have to pass these on to my friend Brandi. She is doing a Keto diet and I bet would love some new recipes.
Chia seeds are like magic how they puff up. Such a delicious way to get more nutrients.
Love chia pudding I add 2tsp of vanilla and vanilla almond milk. I also like in it in my banana pancakes.
I have actually been making a chia “oatmeal ” at night as my final consumption. I take 4 tbsp chia seeds, 1/4 c goya coconut milk, and 1/4 c unsweetened vanilla almond milk and stir together. I microwave for 1 -1 1/2 minutes. Stir, add Kerry gold butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon. But going to try these all as well.
They all sound delicious!
Can you use ground chia seeds instead of whole seeds?
Thanks Judy
Sorry Judy I don’t think that would work. They have to be whole seeds.
I’m going to try these for sure! To be a stickler though for the benefit of anyone who is doing keto and isn’t aware- honey and agave are no no’s on this diet. You recommended them as sweeteners along with stevia, which is actually a keto approved sweetener along with monkfruit. The fact that this pudding has 1 net carb is great! As you stated though, it does have 12 total carbs. Ruled.me recommends limiting daily net carbs to 25g and total carbs to 35g per day..
HI again Dee, I reread the post and I can see where what I wrote could be misunderstood. I meant that you could use those sweeteners if you were not doing the keto diet. I have fixed that. I also looked through all the chia pudding recipes again and they all call for keto sweeteners.
