Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 3/4 cup light coconut milk (can substitute any milk)
- 1/4 cup strongly brewed coffee or espresso
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla flavoring
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: Add the chia seeds, coconut milk, coffee, maple syrup, and vanilla flavoring to a mixing bowl. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until it begins to thicken slightly. Alternatively, you can place all the ingredients into a large jar and shake or stir to combine evenly.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl or jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and the pudding to set. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
- Serve: Once set, enjoy the coffee chia pudding as is, or top it with your choice of yogurt, cocoa powder, and chocolate for added flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use strongly brewed coffee or espresso for a rich coffee flavor that is not diluted by the milk.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or agave syrup for different sweetening preferences.
- The pudding can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- For a creamier texture, stir the pudding halfway through the setting period.
- Adjust sweetness and coffee strength to your taste preference.
