Viral Tiramisu Chia Pudding Recipe

4.7 from 73 reviews

This Viral Tiramisu Chia Pudding recipe is a delicious and nutritious twist on the classic Italian dessert, combining chia seeds, Greek yogurt, brewed coffee, and a touch of maple syrup. It’s a no-cook, easy-to-make breakfast or snack option that offers the creamy richness of tiramisu in a healthy, plant-based pudding form. The chia seeds absorb the coffee and yogurt to create a thick, satisfying texture topped off with a dusting of cocoa powder for an authentic tiramisu flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Chia Pudding Base

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

Toppings (Optional)

  • Cocoa powder for dusting
  • Optional fruits, nuts, or nut butters as desired

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add chia seeds, Greek yogurt, brewed coffee, maple syrup, sea salt, and cinnamon into a small jar or container. Make sure all ingredients are measured accurately and ready to mix.
  2. Shake to Mix: Secure the lid tightly on the jar and shake vigorously. This ensures all ingredients are well combined and the chia seeds start to absorb the liquid evenly.
  3. Refrigerate Overnight: Place the jar in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 6-8 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to soak up the liquid and develop a thick, pudding-like consistency.
  4. Serve with Topping: When ready to eat, remove the jar from the fridge and sprinkle cocoa powder on top for a tiramisu-inspired finish. Optionally, add any fruits, nuts, or nut butters for added flavor and nutrition.

Notes

  • You can substitute dairy yogurt with a thick dairy-free yogurt for a vegan version.
  • Adjust sweetness to your taste by varying the amount of maple syrup or using a different liquid sweetener.
  • Using freshly brewed coffee is recommended for the best flavor.
  • For a richer tiramisu flavor, try adding a drop of vanilla or a small amount of coffee liqueur (for non-vegans).
  • Make sure the jar lid is securely fastened before shaking to avoid spills.
  • Chia pudding can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
