Coffee, almond milk, and chia seeds combine to create a creamy, guilt-free breakfast that tastes just like the classic Italian dessert. I love making this because it requires no baking and is ready the moment I wake up.

Use strong brewed coffee or espresso for the liquid base; using weak coffee will result in a bland pudding that lacks the signature tiramisu flavor.
