Ingredients
Pudding Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk of choice
- ½ cup chia seeds
- 1½ Tbsp instant espresso powder
- Pinch of salt
Topping Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting
Instructions
- Blend Pudding Base: Add 2 cups Greek yogurt, 2 Tbsp maple syrup, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 cup milk, ½ cup chia seeds, 1½ Tbsp instant espresso powder, and a pinch of salt into a blender. Blend for about 60 seconds until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary to ensure even mixing.
- Divide Mixture: Pour the blended chia pudding evenly into 4 sealable jars or containers. Alternatively, store the mixture in a single large container if preferred.
- Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 tsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- Add Topping & Dust with Cocoa: Spoon the yogurt topping evenly over each pudding serving and smooth it out with the back of a spoon. Generously dust the tops with unsweetened cocoa powder to mimic the tiramisu finish. If storing in a large container, add the yogurt topping and cocoa just before serving.
- Chill: Refrigerate the jars or container for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and the pudding to set.
Notes
- Use any milk of choice such as almond, cow’s, oat, or soy milk depending on dietary preferences.
- The instant espresso powder adds the classic tiramisu flavor, but can be omitted for a milder taste.
- For a thicker pudding, increase chia seeds slightly or decrease milk.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or agave syrup.
- This pudding is best served chilled and consumed within 3-4 days.
- Seal containers well when storing to maintain freshness.
