Decadent Vegan Tiramisu Chia Seed Pudding! Coffee Chocolate Chia pudding layered with creamy vanilla layer topped with whipped coconut cream and cocoa powder. Glutenfree Soyfree Nutfree Dairyfree Jump to Recipe

When you can have Tiramisu Chia seed pudding for breakfast, then why wouldn’t you!

This easy chia pudding has 3 layers. The Chocolate Coffee layer has warmed non dairy milk, vanilla, cocoa powder, some coffee, maple syrup or other sweetener, and chia seeds. The warmed milk helps the chia seed absorb the liquid evenly and quickly and the pudding thickens within 15 mins!

For the cream layer I use warmed non dairy milk, almond extract, a pinch of salt and lemon juice for the cheese flavor, maple syrup or other sweetener, and chia seeds. The almond extract adds a bit of amaretto flavor without the liquor. You can add the extract to either the chocolate layer or the cream layer. The lemon and salt add a slight cream cheese like flavor which works amazingly. You can omit them for a plain vanilla pudding layer as well. The third layer is some fluffy whipped coconut cream and a dusting of good cocoa! and done.

How to make Tiramisu Chia Seed Pudding

Warm the non dairy milk. Mix the non dairy milk through maple syrup with a whisk for the chocolate layer. Then add the chia seeds and let sit for 15 mins to thicken. The warmed milk helps the chia seed absorb the liquid evenly and quickly and the pudding thickens in 15 mins.

Mix the non dairy milk, almond extract and salt. Add chia seeds and let sit for 15 minutes to thicken. then fold in lemon juice and salt. (Fold in 2-3 tbsp whipped coconut cream for creamier layer).

Scoop into serving containers. top with 1-2 tbsp whipped coconut cream or just coconut cream. Dust with cocoa powder. Chill and serve. Add other toppings such as chocolate granola, fruits of choice.

Variations:

Make all Chocolate chia seed pudding: Double the chocolate layer minus the coffee. Top with whipped coconut cream.

Make Chocolate and vanilla pudding: Omit coffee from the chocolate coffee layer, omit lemon and salt, add vanilla extract in the cream layer. You can alternate spooning the pudding for a marble effect.

Make Tiramisu overnight oats: Use 1 tbsp chia seeds and 3/4 cup oats instead of the chia seeds in chocolate layer and 1 tbsp chia seeds and 1/2 cup oats in cream layer.
