Can I prepare this breakfast parfait ahead of time?

Yes, the blueberry chia seed pudding needs to set in the fridge overnight, making this an ideal make-ahead breakfast. You'll layer it with oats in the morning.

What if my blueberry pudding is too thick or thin in the morning?

If the pudding is too thick, simply stir in a little more almond milk until it reaches your desired consistency. If it's too thin, it may need more time to set or a few more chia seeds next time.

Can I use a different type of milk for the pudding?

While almond milk is specified, you can use any plant-based milk like soy, oat, or cashew milk to make the chia seed pudding.

How should I store leftover parfait?

It's best to assemble the parfait fresh in the morning. The blueberry pudding can be stored separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.

Are there any other fruits I can use instead of blueberries?

Absolutely! While blueberries are key to the pudding, you could experiment with mashed raspberries or strawberries for a different flavor, or use them as a garnish alongside the banana.
