Ingredients
Scale
Chia Pudding
- 1 cup milk of choice (240g)
- 1/4 cup chia seeds (45g)
- 3 tbsp strong brewed coffee or espresso (45g)
- 3 tbsp vanilla protein powder (21g)
- 1 1/2 tbsp sweetener of choice (22g)
- 1/8 tsp salt (optional)
Toppings
- 10 oz vanilla yogurt or plant-based yogurt (280g)
- 1 tsp cocoa powder (2g)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl or directly into your serving container, whisk together the chia seeds, milk, brewed coffee or espresso, vanilla protein powder, sweetener, and optional salt until thoroughly mixed.
- Refrigerate to Thicken: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least three hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a thick, pudding-like consistency.
- Prepare Yogurt: If you are using unsweetened yogurt, sweeten it to taste while the pudding is chilling to ensure the perfect balance of flavors.
- Assemble and Serve: Once the chia pudding is set, top each serving with a generous layer of yogurt, then dust with cocoa powder for a classic tiramisu flavor.
- Store Leftovers: Keep any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to four days to maintain freshness.
Notes
- You can use any type of milk and yogurt to suit dietary preferences, such as dairy, almond, soy, or coconut.
- Adjust sweetness as desired by experimenting with different sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or stevia.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, increase the amount of brewed coffee or espresso slightly.
- This recipe is best served chilled and can be prepared the night before for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, briefly blend the mixture before refrigerating, but be aware it may change the chia seed consistency.
