This vegan and gluten-free Matcha Cinnamon Chia Pudding is perfect for breakfast! It fills you for hours without making you feel super stuffed.

This Matcha Cinnamon Chia Pudding is vegan, gluten-free and sweetened with maple syrup. It can be made the day ahead and is therefore an excellent breakfast idea when you don’t have a lot time in the mornings or you tend to oversleep.

The 2-layered Matcha Cinnamon Chia Pudding is not only pretty to look at, but also yummy and it keeps me full the whole morning until lunch. It’s a great post-yoga/workout treat as well!

The basic formula for Chia Puddings

I’ve found the perfect ratio to be:

1 cup plant-based milk

1 tablespoon maple syrup

3 tablespoons chia seeds

You can add any kind of spices or flavors (cinnamon, cardamom, cocoa,..) or fruits into the mixture!
