Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or thick dairy free yogurt)
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee
  • 1/52 tbsp maple syrup (or liquid sweetener)
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 shake cinnamon (or as much as you like)

Topping

  • Optional: cocoa powder for topping when ready to serve

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add chia seeds, Greek yogurt, brewed coffee, maple syrup, sea salt, and cinnamon to a small jar or container. Ensure all ingredients are measured and ready.
  2. Shake to Mix: Secure the lid tightly on the jar and shake vigorously until all ingredients are thoroughly combined, ensuring chia seeds are evenly distributed and start absorbing the liquid.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Place the jar in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 6-8 hours or overnight. This resting time allows the chia seeds to soak up the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like texture.
  4. Serve with Topping: When ready to serve, remove the jar from the fridge and sprinkle cocoa powder on top for a tiramisu-inspired finish. Enjoy immediately for best texture and flavor.
  5. Optional Variations: You can customize the pudding by adding fruits, nuts, or nut butters as desired for extra flavor and nutrition.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of brewed coffee and maple syrup to control sweetness and consistency.
  • Chia pudding consistency can vary; if runny, refrigerate longer or reduce liquid slightly next time.
  • Use any brewed coffee you prefer, including decaf or mushroom coffee.
  • This recipe serves a single portion; multiply ingredients as needed for more servings.
  • For dairy-free, substitute plain Greek yogurt with thick, plant-based yogurt.
  • Adding the cocoa powder topping is essential for the full tiramisu flavor experience.
