Creamy Coffee Chia Pudding Recipe
Description
The Creamy Coffee Chia Pudding Recipe uses chia seeds as a base, which absorb liquid to create a pudding-like texture. The addition of brewed coffee imparts bold flavor, balanced by maple syrup for sweetness and almond butter for creaminess and subtle nuttiness. Collagen powder adds protein without altering the flavor noticeably. Almond milk provides a dairy-free, smooth consistency.
Mixing the ingredients thoroughly before and after a brief rest helps prevent clumps and produces an even texture. Letting the pudding set for several hours or overnight allows the chia seeds to fully hydrate and thicken the mixture into a creamy consistency. This pudding can be enjoyed as a nutritious breakfast or snack, topped with preferred garnishes.
The recipe advises using room temperature or cooler coffee and runny almond butter to ensure smooth mixing and suggests adjusting maple syrup and almond milk to control sweetness.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 3 tablespoons brewed coffee
- ⅛ cup maple syrup
- 1.5 tablespoons almond butter
- 3 tablespoons collagen powder

Notes
- Use room temperature or cooler brewed coffee to help chia seeds absorb evenly.
- Employ runny almond butter for better mixing and consistent texture.
- Mix the chia pudding twice—immediately after combining ingredients and again after 5 minutes—to prevent clumps.
- Adjust sweetness by reducing maple syrup and increasing almond milk as preferred.
- The recipe yields one large serving or two small portions, which can be topped with coconut whipped cream or other favorites.
