Ingredients
Chia Pudding Mixture
- 2 Tablespoons chia seeds
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ scoop (14.5 grams) plant-based vanilla protein powder (e.g. Truvani)
- 1 shot (1.5 oz) espresso
Toppings
- 5.3 oz container vanilla low sugar Siggi’s yogurt (or 150 grams of your favorite low sugar vanilla yogurt)
- Cocoa powder (for dusting on top)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl or container, mix the chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, plant-based vanilla protein powder, and freshly brewed espresso. Stir thoroughly to incorporate all the protein powder and to evenly distribute the ingredients. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps that may have formed.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or container with a lid and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for a few hours or preferably overnight to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
- Prepare to Serve: When ready to serve, remove the pudding from the fridge and give it a good stir to ensure a smooth consistency.
- Add Toppings: Spoon the vanilla low sugar yogurt on top of the chia pudding evenly to create a creamy layer.
- Finish and Serve: Dust a light layer of cocoa powder over the yogurt topping to enhance the tiramisu flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, delicious chia pudding.
Notes
- Using freshly brewed espresso is ideal to get the best tiramisu flavor, but you can substitute with strong brewed coffee if needed.
- Letting the pudding sit overnight improves the texture and flavor melding.
- For a sweeter pudding, choose a flavored protein powder or add a natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey before chilling.
- This recipe is designed as a single serving but can easily be multiplied for more servings.
- Adjust the thickness by varying the amount of almond milk depending on your preference.
