Ingredients You’ll Need

What I love most about this recipe is how every ingredient earns its keep—bringing essential flavor, creaminess, or nutrition to the mix. You don’t need anything fancy, but each item plays a key role in creating that classic tiramisu vibe in a Refined Sugar Free) way.

Chia seeds: These little super seeds are the secret to the pudding’s thick, luscious texture—soaking up liquid and adding a nutrition boost.
Plain Greek yogurt (or thick dairy free yogurt): This is your ticket to that trademark tiramisu creaminess while keeping things light and protein packed.
Brewed coffee: Rich, bold, and totally classic tiramisu—choose your favorite strength to soak your chia.
Maple syrup (or liquid sweetener): Adds gentle, naturally sweet notes; adjust to taste for your ideal level of sweetness, all while keeping it Refined Sugar Free).
Sea salt: Just a pinch brings all the other flavors to life and balances any bitterness from the coffee.
Cinnamon: That subtle warmth makes each bite irresistible; use as little or as much as you’d like for a flavor twist.
Cocoa powder (optional, for topping): Adds that essential tiramisu dusting on top—don’t skip this finishing touch if you want the full effect!

How to Make Refined Sugar Free)

Step 1: Mix Everything Together

In a small jar or container, combine the chia seeds, yogurt, brewed coffee, maple syrup, sea salt, and cinnamon. This is your one-stop base for irresistible tiramisu flavor! The coffee infuses the chia and the yogurt binds it all into a creamy treat.

Step 2: Shake and Combine

Put a lid on the jar (make sure it’s tight!) and shake vigorously until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. This quick shake helps distribute the chia seeds evenly so you won’t end up with clumps—it’s your secret to the perfect texture.

Step 3: Chill and Set

Pop the jar in the fridge and let it work its magic overnight, or for at least four hours. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid, plumping up to create that signature pudding consistency you crave in Refined Sugar Free) treats.

Step 4: Add Cocoa and Serve

When you’re ready to dig in, just sprinkle a generous dusting of cocoa powder over the top. Not only does this capture that quintessence of tiramisu, but it also adds a bittersweet finish that makes every bite a celebration.

How to Serve Refined Sugar Free)

Garnishes

For authentic tiramisu flair, finish with a layer of unsweetened cocoa powder right before serving. If you like, shave a little bit of dark chocolate or add a dollop of whipped coconut cream on top—a fun, Refined Sugar Free) upgrade that looks impressive but takes seconds.

Side Dishes

This pudding is seriously satisfying solo, but pairs beautifully with fresh berries, a handful of toasted nuts, or even an almond flour biscotti. These little extras add color and texture, while still staying true to the Refined Sugar Free) spirit.

Creative Ways to Present

Layer the chia pudding in clear glasses or small mason jars, alternating with extra yogurt or a dash of espresso-soaked ladyfingers (gluten free and Refined Sugar Free) if you like!). For parties, serve in espresso cups or shot glasses for a playful, mini dessert moment.

Storing Leftovers

Keep your Viral Tiramisu Chia Pudding (Refined Sugar Free) covered in the refrigerator for up to four days. The pudding may get a bit thicker as it sits, but just give it a good stir before enjoying—it only gets more flavorful with time.
