Description
Imagine indulging in a classic tiramisu flavor with a modern, health-conscious twist. This delicious pudding is a great guilt-free treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop vanilla or coffee-flavored protein powder
- 2 tablespoons brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or sweetener of choice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- Optional: 2 crushed ladyfinger cookies or graham crackers
- Optional: 2 tablespoons light whipped topping
Instructions
- Begin by placing your Greek yogurt, protein powder, brewed coffee, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder into a mixing bowl. Stir the mixture thoroughly until it becomes smooth and well-blended, ensuring no clumps remain.
- In your chosen serving jar or bowl, spread half of the crushed cookies evenly at the bottom. This provides a firm base to hold the creamy layers above.
- Spoon half of your carefully mixed yogurt concoction over the cookies. Smooth it out to create an even layer.
- Scatter the remaining cookie crumbs on top of the yogurt layer, followed by the rest of the yogurt mixture, making sure to smooth it evenly across the surface.
- Top with a light layer of whipped topping if you like, and finish with a dusting of cocoa powder for that classic tiramisu finish.
- Place the assembled pudding in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully, delivering that iconic tiramisu taste.
Notes
For a stronger coffee flavor, consider increasing the espresso quantity or letting your coffee brew longer. When choosing a sweetener, consider natural options like honey or agave syrup for additional health benefits.
