Ingredients
Chia Mixture
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Coffee
- 2 tsp instant coffee or espresso
- 4 oz hot water
Instructions
- Prepare the coffee: In a small cup or bowl, dissolve 2 teaspoons of instant coffee or espresso powder into 4 ounces of hot water. Stir well until fully dissolved to create a strong coffee base.
- Mix pudding ingredients: Divide the coffee, chia seeds, milk, protein powder, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract evenly into two small containers or mason jars. Alternatively, combine all ingredients in a large bowl and then transfer the mixture into two separate containers.
- Refrigerate to set: Cover the containers and place them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to expand and the pudding to thicken into a creamy, spoonable texture.
Notes
- You can customize sweetness by adjusting the amount of maple syrup according to your taste preferences.
- The pudding can be assembled in advance and stored for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
- Use any type of milk you prefer such as almond, soy, or cow’s milk to suit dietary needs.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, increase the instant coffee amount slightly.
- Mixing all ingredients in a large bowl ensures even distribution before portioning.
