This coffee chia protein pudding is a creamy, energizing breakfast or snack loaded with fiber, protein, and a rich coffee flavor—perfect for meal prep and made with just a few ingredients.
Ingredients
1 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
1/2 cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
1 scoop vanilla or chocolate protein powder
1/4 cup chia seeds
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or sweetener of choice (optional)
Instructions
1. In a mixing bowl or jar, whisk together cooled coffee, milk, and protein powder until smooth.
2. Stir in chia seeds and maple syrup (if using) until well combined.
3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping.

Adjust sweetness to your preference or skip it altogether.
