Blood Orange Chia Seed Pudding & Vanilla Overnight Oats Parfait Recipe

I had several blood oranges left over from my Blood Orange Coronaritas and decided to concoct a next level breakfast parfait.

A lowball glass is filled with a layer of pink blood orange chia pudding, then a layer of white vanilla overnight oats, and another layer of the chia pudding on top. Chopped pistachios, blood orange, and be pollen garnish the top. Blood oranges are out of focus in the background.

Chia seed pudding is my favorite make-ahead breakfast. Everyone really loved the last parfait I put on here, Banana Cacao Chia Seed Pudding, and I wanted to try to top it with this blood orange version.

I combined the chia seeds with greek yogurt, fresh squeezed blood orange juice, and honey. After it sits in the fridge overnight it will have the consistency of a thick pudding.

I wanted this parfait to have varying textures, so putting another layer of chia seed pudding in the middle was out.

Other than chia seeds, my favorite make-ahead breakfast is overnight oats. They’re so creamy and filling! A vanilla version seemed ideal to complement the blood orange flavor.

Because this is a breakfast parfait, I thought it needed some kick-ass toppings. We’re pistachio addicts in this house and buy pounds at a time and they seemed like a great addition to add a little crunch.

I also threw in some bee pollen and diced blood orange. I like to add as little sweetener to mine as possible, but if you’re so inclined, you can drizzle honey over top as well.

If you use different toppings, please let us know how it worked out. We always love to try something new!

    There’s a bunch of blood oranges on my backyard tree so I decided to give this recipe a go. What a tasty breakfast! I left our the bee pollen because I didn’t have it.
