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)
Topping
- 10 oz vanilla yogurt or plant-based yogurt (280g)
- 1 tsp cocoa powder (2g)
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl or directly in your serving container, whisk together the chia seeds, milk, brewed coffee, sweetener, optional salt, and vanilla protein powder until all ingredients are well combined.
- 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 gel-like pudding consistency.
- Sweeten Yogurt (if needed): If using unsweetened yogurt, stir in additional sweetener to taste while the pudding is thickening.
- Assemble and Serve: Once the pudding is set, top each serving with a generous spoonful of vanilla yogurt. Dust the top with cocoa powder to add the classic tiramisu touch.
- Store Leftovers: Keep any remaining pudding covered in the refrigerator for up to four days to maintain freshness.
Notes
- You can prepare this pudding in individual jars for easy grab-and-go snacks.
- Adjust the sweetness and coffee intensity according to your taste preferences.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based milk, vegan protein powder, and plant-based yogurt.
- The pudding thickens best when refrigerated for several hours or overnight.
- Ensure to stir the mixture well before refrigerating to prevent chia seeds from clumping.
