Method

Prepare the Chia Pudding Base

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, and 1 tablespoon maple syrup. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps. Allow to rest for at least 10 minutes to fully gel.
In a small bowl or cup, dissolve 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until fully blended.

Combine Yogurt and Chia Mixture

In a large bowl, add 1.5 cups of full-fat Greek yogurt. Pour the bloomed chia seed mixture into the yogurt. Whisk thoroughly until completely smooth and homogeneous.

Assemble the Tiramisu Layers

In four individual glass jars or bowls, begin layering: add 1/4 of the yogurt-chia mixture (about 1/2 cup), then drizzle 1 teaspoon of the espresso mixture over it, followed by 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, ending with a final dusting of cocoa powder on top.

Chill and Serve

Cover each jar with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours — preferably overnight — to fully set. Before serving, top with optional chopped almonds, cacao nibs, or fresh berries for texture and flavor.

Notes

This recipe yields four 1-cup servings. For meal prep, make a double batch and store in the fridge for up to 5 days. For a keto version, substitute maple syrup with 1–2 teaspoons of monk fruit powder. Ensure all ingredients are certified gluten-free if needed. Serving chilled is key — this pudding is not meant to be reheated. Nutritional values are estimates and may vary by brand.
