A chilled chia pudding parfait layers creamy texture with bright berry flavour for a morning treat that feels comforting and refreshing. The blend creates a balanced start to the day, and the smooth chia base supports a relaxed pace.

Fresh toppings add contrast, while the maqui swirl deepens the colour and flavour. You can prepare the parfait the night before, making your morning feel calmer and more organised. A small jar travels well, so you can enjoy it at home or on the go.

Directions 

A chia pudding parfait comes together easily with a few organised steps. Combine chia seeds with milk and allow them to absorb the liquid until thick and creamy. Blend yoghurt with MaquiOrganic powder for a bright purple swirl, then layer the pudding with the maqui yoghurt, oats, and fresh berries. Finish with coconut and a hint of lemon to round out the flavour. The parfait chills well overnight, so you can prepare it in advance and enjoy a calm and steady morning. A few simple additions help you personalise the texture and sweetness. The process supports your routine with minimal effort.

Recipe Notes

Chia thickens as it sits, so adjust with a splash of milk if you prefer a looser texture. Layer toppings just before serving to keep them crisp. A small amount of lemon brightens the flavour without overpowering the maqui notes. You can easily double the pudding base for meal prep. Using MaquiOrganic 100% maqui berry powder ensures a rich, naturally vibrant purple tone.
