This Greek Yogurt Jello with Chia Seeds combines fresh strawberries, creamy Greek yogurt, and gelatin into a fun twist on classic jello. It’s easy to make, packed with strawberry flavor, and perfect for a snack, breakfast, or light dessert.

I first made this recipe after seeing yogurt jello trending online and immediately knew I had to try it. What makes this version so unique is the combination of creamy Greek yogurt and gelatin. The yogurt gives it a rich, tangy flavor while the gelatin transforms it into a perfectly sliceable, spoonable treat with that nostalgic jello texture. Add in fresh strawberries and chia seeds, and you end up with something that feels like a cross between strawberry mousse, pudding, and classic strawberry jello.

I highly recommend topping it with my Coconut Whipped Cream and fresh strawberries for an extra refreshing finish. The creamy yogurt, sweet berries, and light jello texture make it one of those recipes that’s almost impossible to stop eating after the first bite. And if you’re a fellow jello lover, don’t miss my Grandma’s Orange Cheese Mandarin Jello. It’s a nostalgic family favorite and one of the most unique jello recipes on the blog.

How to Make

Add strawberries and maple syrup to a saucepan and cook until the strawberries are very soft and juicy.

In a small bowl, whisk together the gelatin and cold water. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to bloom.

Add the bloomed gelatin into the warm strawberry mixture and whisk until fully dissolved.

Transfer the strawberry mixture to a blender or use an immersion blender and blend until completely smooth.

Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any remaining seeds or pulp. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Let the mixture cool until warm but not hot. Whisk in the chia seeds until fully combined.

Whisk in the yogurt until fully combined.

Let the mixture sit, then whisk once more to evenly distribute the chia seeds. Pour into a dish or individual jars and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours before enjoying!

Tips and Tricks

• Let the strawberry mixture cool slightly before adding the yogurt to keep everything smooth and creamy.
• Whisk the mixture again after a few minutes to help evenly distribute the chia seeds.
• Blend thoroughly and strain for the smoothest texture.

How to Save and Store

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This recipe is not recommended for freezing, as the texture can become grainy once thawed.
