Banana Split Chia Pudding is a healthy and creamy twist on the classic banana split, combining the natural sweetness of ripe banana with the richness of chia pudding. It’s a delicious, nutritious, and customizable treat perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp chia seeds

½ cup milk

2 tsp maple syrup

½ tsp vanilla extract

½ ripe banana, mashed

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl or jar, combine the chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  2. Stir the mixture well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed in the liquid.
  3. Mash the banana in a separate bowl and then add it to the chia mixture. Stir to combine, ensuring the banana is fully incorporated.
  4. Cover the bowl or jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
  5. After chilling, give the pudding a good stir. If it’s too thick, you can add a little extra milk to reach your desired consistency.
  6. Serve chilled and enjoy! You can also top it with additional sliced banana, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, or chopped nuts for a more decadent treat.

Notes

This pudding is great for meal prep. Make it the night before for a quick and healthy breakfast or snack.

To make the pudding thicker, simply add more chia seeds. To make it thinner, stir in extra milk.

If you like a stronger banana flavor, feel free to add more mashed banana.

This recipe can be made dairy-free by using almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk.

Top the pudding with chocolate syrup, granola, or chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.
