Want your nutrients and your morning dose of coffee all before you head to work? Go for an overnight chia pudding! This recipe saves you a lot of time by incorporating coffee into your one-pot breakfast meal. Let's explore the recipe!
– 1/4 cup chia seeds – 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled – 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based) – 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste) – 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract – Optional toppings: sliced almonds, cocoa nibs, shredded coconut
Start by brewing your favorite coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled coffee, milk, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until well combined.
Gradually pour in the chia seeds while stirring continuously to prevent clumping. Make sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into individual serving jars. Place it in the refrigerator to set for at least 4 hours or overnight. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and expand, creating a pudding-like consistency.
Once the pudding has set, give it a final stir and serve it chilled. You can top it with sliced almonds, cocoa nibs, shredded coconut, or any other toppings of your choice.
