Cocoa powder is sprinkled over the finished pudding. This pudding can be prepared and refrigerated overnight for serving.

Plain yogurt adds texture. Brewed coffee adds a coffee flavor. Maple syrup adds sweetness. Small amounts of sea salt and ground cinnamon are combined with yogurt and chia seeds in the jar. Cocoa powder is added later. Yogurt is used instead of milk in the pudding recipe for a pudding-like texture. Other dairy-free yogurt and liquid sweeteners can be substituted.

After chilling overnight, the chia seed pudding mixture will be thick enough to spoon and contain visible chia seeds. Tightly screwing the lid onto the jar and vigorously shaking the contents before chilling can help distribute the chia seeds evenly. Other problems with serving chia seed pudding include uneven distribution of chia seeds in the jar. The most common problem with serving chia seed pudding is serving it before it sets. Cocoa powder can be added to the pudding at the end as a garnish.

Eat from the jar for breakfast, as a snack, or as dessert. The article recommends using a mesh strainer to sprinkle cocoa on the top of the product to avoid clumping. Use more jars with lids to serve individual portions.
