  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup Can be substituted with honey or agave nectar.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk of your choice (dairy or plant-based) Almond or oat milk can be used.
  • ½ cup chia seeds
  • 1.5 tablespoons instant espresso powder Ensure to use full amount for proper flavor.

For the topping

  • to taste unsweetened cocoa powder For dusting on top.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all the ingredients for the pudding base and measure them out.
  2. Place all pudding-base ingredients into a high-speed blender. Blend on medium-high for about 60 seconds, scraping down the sides occasionally.
  3. Divide the blended pudding evenly into four jars or containers. Smooth the tops slightly with a spoon.
  4. In a separate small bowl, combine 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 teaspoons maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  5. Spoon the topping evenly over each pudding jar, creating a clean layer. Smooth it out.
  6. Generously sprinkle unsweetened cocoa powder on top of each jar.
  7. Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or chill overnight for best results.
  8. Serve straight from the jar.

Notes

Store in the fridge for up to four days. For longer storage, freeze the pudding base without the topping.
