Description

All the espresso-soaked charm of tiramisu—reimagined as a nourishing, refined-sugar-free chia pudding. Thick Greek yogurt (or dairy-free), strong coffee, and fiber-rich chia seeds create a creamy, coffee-forward breakfast that feels like dessert but fuels like a pro.

Instructions

Combine: In a jar or bowl, add chia seeds, yogurt, coffee, maple syrup, sea salt, and cinnamon (if using). If coffee is hot, let it cool first.
Mix Well: Seal and shake 15–20 seconds (or whisk). Rest 5 minutes, then stir again to redistribute seeds and prevent clumps.
Chill: Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight until thick and creamy as seeds absorb the liquid.
Finish & Serve: Check consistency; add a splash of coffee or milk if too thick. Dust generously with unsweetened cocoa powder. Enjoy cold.

Notes

For extra indulgence, top with a spoonful of yogurt or coconut whipped cream before dusting with cocoa. Meal-prep friendly—scale up and refrigerate in individual jars for 3–4 days.
