If you can not get behind the texture of chia pudding, but you still want to reap the benefits, including fiber, omega 3s, and calcium from chia seeds, then you’ve got to give blended chia pudding a try!

Specifically this Blended Cookie Dough Chia Pudding

It’s high protein, high fiber, gluten & dairy free, and the texture is thick, smooth, and creamy, reminding me on an indulgent worthy mousse!

If you’re already a chia pudding fan feel free to skip the blending portion; you’ll still love the flavor of the base and the optional (but highly recommended!) cookie dough bites!

The base itself has a sweet cookie flavor, but the cookie dough balls just make it THAT much more fun!

Why You’ll Love This Blended Cookie Dough Chia Pudding

It’s nourishing and filling
It’s gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free, and easily vegan, too
When the chia seeds and milk are blended like this, you’re left with a thick and creamy decadent mousse! Versus a mushy texture that chia pudding can often bring out
It’s high in fiber, calcium, omega 3 fatty acids, and high protein

Ingredients

2 cups coconut milk, shaken from 1 can
1/2 cup chia seeds
1/3 cup French vanilla protein powder
3 tbsp cashew butter
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla paste
Cookie dough balls
1/4 cup Cashew Butter Or peanut butter (or 1/2 of each!)
3 Tbsp Vanilla Protein Powder – Just Ingredients if my fave brand! They’ve got a nourishing 100% grass fed whey, or keep it completely dairy free with their healthy french vanilla bone broth protein! Use code colleenF10 to save at checkout
2 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
2 Tbsp Mini Chocolate Chips
1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

Process

Blend together milk and chia seeds, 1-2 minutes, until you get a thick and creamy pudding like texture
If you’re ok with traditional chia pudding, then blend everything together minus the chia seeds, then stir the chia seeds in at the end
Once blended, add the remaining ingredients and blend again until smooth
Your mixture may be warm, depending how long you needed to blend it to get it fully smooth
If adding chocolate chips to the mixture, be sure to let the pudding cool 15 minutes before stirring them in, so they don’t melt
Pour into 4 jars and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight
Make cookie dough balls by adding ingredients together to a bowl, rolling into mini balls, and refrigerating them at least 15 min
When ready to enjoy top with your cookie dough and enjoy!
Stir in the fridge up to 4 days

I love how easy it to just add all of the filling ingredients to a blender, mix, and pour!

I used my Ninja Blend Boss here. It’s small but mighty!! It blended the chia seeds up so good.

I’ve tried a different blender in the past and I could NOT get the chia seeds to break down. I highly recommend this one!

Variations for Dietary Preferences

Protein powder – feel free to omit in the chia pudding. You can also add greek yogurt or blended cottage cheese to up the protein
Coconut milk – feel free to use any milk here
Pure maple syrup – feel free to sub honey or medjool date syrup
Cashew butter – adds to the cookie dough taste. Feel free to use peanut butter for a PB cookie dough flavor. You can also use vanilla oat butter like oat haus brand which would add great flavor
