You’d never guess that the secret ingredient in this high-protein passion fruit chia pudding is silken tofu. When blended with vanilla yogurt, passion fruit, and sweetened condensed milk, it creates a thick, creamy pudding that takes just minutes to make.

Chia Passion Fruit Pudding

Passion fruit is one of my favorite tropical fruits, so I wanted to turn its sweet-tart flavor into a healthy dessert that’s high in protein and fiber. Silken tofu gives this Passion Fruit Chia Pudding an incredibly smooth, creamy texture without any heavy cream, while chia seeds help thicken it and add plenty of fiber. Topped with fresh raspberries, it’s bright, refreshing, and just sweet enough for dessert, but nutritious enough to enjoy as a snack or breakfast.

Why This Passion Fruit Chia Pudding Recipe Works

I enjoy experimenting with new flavor combinations for chia pudding and have many variations, like this Tropical Chia Pudding Breakfast Bowl and Apple Chia Pudding with Peanut Butter. I also like finding ways to increase the protein content to make it more filling. Silken tofu is an excellent way to add protein without many extra calories.

• Fast and easy: Just blend and refrigerate. 
• High protein: 11.5 grams of protein will keep you satisfied for hours. 
• Perfect for meal prep: Lasts for 4 days and is great for grabbing on your way out of the house.

Tips from Gina’s Test Kitchen

Since fresh passion fruit isn’t always easy to find, I use Pitaya Foods Seedless Passion Fruit Cubes, sold in the frozen fruit section at Whole Foods. They give the pudding that same bright, sweet-tart flavor without the hassle of scooping and straining fresh fruit.

This recipe is also great as a pudding without the chia seeds if you prefer. But it’s important to let it refrigerate for at least 4 hours to thicken and set, even without the seeds.

How to Make Passion Fruit Chia Pudding 

This easy passion fruit chia pudding recipe requires just a few minutes of hands-on prep. See the recipe card below for printable instructions.

1. Blend tofu, yogurt, passion fruit, condensed milk, and vanilla in a blender. Then, stir in the chia seeds.
2. Refrigerate the chia pudding for 4 to 24 hours to allow the chia seeds to thicken it. Top with raspberries before serving.

Variations

• Fruit: If you can’t find passion fruit, try it with pineapple, mango, or papaya.
• Berries: Top the chia pudding with another type of berry or tropical fruit, including fresh passion fruit.
• Dairy-free: Use a dairy-free yogurt and substitute the condensed milk with almond milk and honey or maple syrup.
• Skip the chia seeds and make a passion fruit mousse. Just make sure to refrigerate it for at least 4 hours.

Storage and Meal Prep Tips

• Meal prep: This recipe makes 4 servings, so you can make 1 batch that will last most of the week. After blending, pour the pudding into individual containers or jars. Once the pudding has thickened, top each with raspberries.
