Ingredients
-
250g lactose-free kefir yoghurt
-
75g frozen blueberries
-
75g frozen raspberries
-
2 tablespoons chia seeds, soaked in lactose-free milk (about 100ml)
-
25g dark chocolate (70% or above), roughly chopped or grated
Optional Toppings:
-
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed or linseed
-
A handful of oats or high-fibre granola
-
A drizzle of honey or maple syrup (if extra sweetness is needed)
Directions
Mix 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with approximately 100ml of lactose-free milk.
- Leave to soak for at least 1–2 hours or overnight in the fridge until it forms a thick, gel-like consistency.
In a breakfast bowl, stir together the 250g of kefir yoghurt and the soaked chia pudding.
Add the frozen blueberries and raspberries on top — no need to defrost unless you prefer a softer texture.
Sprinkle over the 25g of chopped dark chocolate.
- Add any extra toppings you like for texture or sweetness.
Let sit for 10–15 minutes so the berries soften and release their juices.
Recipe Note
Nutrition Benefits:

Supports gut health (from probiotics and prebiotic fibre)
Lactose-free — perfect for sensitive stomachs
🔍 Important Note:
This Sugar value includes both naturally occurring sugars (from fruit and kefir) and added/free sugars (mainly from dark chocolate, depending on cocoa content). The NHS guideline focuses on free sugars, so if your kefir and chocolate are low in added sugar, the actual free sugar percentage could be lower.
For a low-lactose option, you can use Biotiful Gut Health Original Kefir, which is naturally low in lactose due to the fermentation process.
If you prefer a fully plant-based alternative, try using coconut, almond, oat, or cashew milk kefir — just make sure it's labelled as containing live cultures for the same probiotic benefits.
