Coffee Chia Pudding

If you love your morning cup of coffee then you’ll love this Coffee Chia Pudding! It’s made with coffee or espresso and tastes just like a delicious lightly-sweetened latte.

Notes From My Kitchen

There’s nothing quite like waking up in the morning and taking that first sip of coffee.

It’s a flavour we all know and love that is not only delicious to drink black or as a latte, but is also delicious to enjoy in a coffee banana smoothie, or coffee overnight oats.

This coffee chia pudding is one of my personal favourite chia pudding recipes and is one that I’ve made and tested dozens of times in my kitchen.

I’ve made this recipe with both coffee or espresso (I use a Nespresso machine) and both methods work. If using a coffee machine, I highly recommend using strongly brewed coffee so you can that bold coffee taste.

I’ve also made this recipe with full-fat coconut milk, oat milk and almond milk. I recommend using at least half full-fat coconut milk for a rich and creamy texture. Sometimes I’ll also add in a 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt or cottage cheese like I use in my Cottage Cheese Chia Pudding for an added protein boost!

Key Ingredients

• Chia seeds: you can use white or black chia seeds. (These are both the same thing, just a different colour.)
• Light coconut milk: I like to use light coconut milk because it adds a creamy texture to the chia pudding. You can use any type of milk you like, but keep in mind using almond milk or non fat dairy milk will result in a less creamy chia pudding. Coconut milk is also delicious in this Peanut Butter Chocolate Chia Pudding!
• Coffee or espresso: you can use strongly brewed coffee or espresso in this recipe. Both work! If you love coffee also give my Greek Yogurt Tiramisu recipe a try!

How To Make Coffee Chia Pudding

Step 1: Add the chia seeds, milk, coffee, maple syrup and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl or a large jar.

Step 2: Whisk everything together until the mixture starts to thicken slightly. (This should take about a minute or so.) Then cover and place the chia pudding in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight.

Step 3: Once the chia pudding has set in the fridge it should be a thick pudding-like texture. If you find the chia pudding has thickened too much, you can add a little bit more milk and stir it together.

What To Serve With Coffee Chia Pudding

This coffee chia pudding can be enjoyed as is or enjoyed with a variety of toppings. Here are some of my favourites that pair well with the coffee flavour.

• Cacao nibs
• Chocolate chips
• Cinnamon
• Cocoa powder
• Chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds etc.)
• Hemp seeds
• Berries
• Sliced banana
• Chocolate granola
