Ingredients

½ cup almond milk
¾ cup dairy free Greek yogurt divided
½ scoop vanilla protein powder
1 tsp maple syrup
¼ cup chia seeds
¼ cup coffee brewed and cooled (you can also use cold brew)
2 gluten-free breakfast biscuits
2 tbsp cocoa powder

Instructions

Add the almond milk, 1/2 cup of yogurt and protein powder to a bowl. Pour the chia seeds and maple syrup into the mixture and whisk well to combine. to ensure that no clumps remain. Trasnfer to the fridge to set for at least 2 hours.
Using a ramekin (I use this) add 1/2 of the chia pudding to the base.
Pour the coffee into a shallow bowl and dip breakfast biscuits (working with one at a time) and rotate to coat both sides.
Add one breakfast biscuit over the chia pudding. Add another 1/2 of the chia pudding over the breakfast biscuit, and then add one more biscuit. Layer the rest of the chia pudding on top, evenly spreading to cover the biscuit.
Add the remaining 1/4 cup of yogurt over the top. Sift the cocoa powder over the yogurt.
Transfer to the fridge to set for another 2-3 hours before enjoying with a spoon!

Notes

Allowing the chia seeds to fully set in the fridge is key for proper digestion!

If you want more protein in this recipe, you can add the whole scoop of protein powder, but keep in mind that you'll need slightly more liquid.
