So this recipe for peanut butter and jelly chia parfait is actually a new & improved version of an older recipe on the blog.

Peanut butter and jelly is one of my all-time favourite combinations, so this recipe is one of my favourite ways to enjoy chia pudding!

The base starts with a creamy vanilla chia pudding, and then is layered with some berry chia pudding jam and finally topped off with some peanut butter. If I’m feeling extra fancy sometimes I’ll even top the whole parfait with some granola. (which is delicious too!)

One thing I love about this recipe is that for the jam you can use any kind of berry mixture you like. I used raspberries with some strawberries for this one. If you’re feeling creative you can always mix up the fruit in the jam. Strawberry & rhubarb jam would be delicious, or even cherry jam!
