This tiramisu chia pudding is the perfect healthier version of this classic dessert! It’s gluten-free, dairy-free, and incredibly simple to make.

Tiramisu is one of my most requested recipes… and for good reason. I’ve tried to figure out how to capture the flavors of tiramisu without making it a ton of work for years, and I think we’ve finally nailed it.

This tiramisu chia pudding is a no-bake dessert that is incredibly easy to make. It has all of the flavors you love about tiramisu but with none of the dairy or gluten and a fraction of the work.

Why you’ll love this Tiramisu Chia Pudding

• It’s no bake! I love a no bake dessert for how easy they are to make!
• It’s amazing for meal prep! Make a big batch at the beginning of the week and enjoy all week!

The Ingredients for the Tiramisu Chia Pudding

• Dairy-Free Milk. I used almond milk, but coconut milk or oat milk would both work too.
• Espresso. You’ll use just a little bit of brewed espresso. You can also try instant coffee. If you don’t drink coffee, you can try to leave it out but it won’t taste quite as much like tiramisu.
• Maple Syrup. This is what we use to sweeten the tiramisu without overpowering the flavor.
• Coconut Yogurt. This adds a bit of that creaminess and tang that you’d get from mascarpone, but totally dairy-free! I love the brand Culina.
• Vanilla, Cocoa Powder, and Almond Extract. For that distinct tiramisu flavor!

How to make Tiramisu Chia Pudding

• Step One. Combine the ingredients for the chocolate layer and set in the fridge.

• Step Two. Combine the ingredients for the mascarpone layer and set in the fridge.

• Step Three. Layer the two flavors and top with whipped cream and cocoa powder.

Tips & Tricks

• Meal prep this! Chia pudding is perfect for meal prep. Make a big batch for dessert for the week, and you’ll thank yourself later.
• Mix, mix, mix. The texture of chia pudding comes together easily, as long as you mix it well.
• Try blending it. If you don’t like chia pudding, try blending the base for a creamier texture.

Storage instructions

Store this recipe in the fridge for 3-4 days. I suggest storing the components separately and layering when you’re ready to serve it.
