Ingredients
  

For the Chia Cream
  • 400 ml Plant-based milk (almond, cashew, or vanilla soy)
  • 6 tbsp Chia seeds
  • 1 tsp Vanilla powder or natural extract
  • 2-3 tbsp Maple syrup (or other natural sweetener)
For the Creamy Layer (Mascarpone-style)
  • 200 g Plain plant-based yogurt (coconut or soy)
  • 100 g Silken tofu or soaked cashews
  • 1 tbsp Maple syrup
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice
For the Soaked "Biscuit" Base
  • 100 ml Strong coffee (espresso or instant)
  • 1 tbsp Maple syrup
  • Gluten-free biscuits, or homemade cake cut into cubes
For the Topping
  • 1-2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably raw)
  • Optional: dark chocolate shavings, chia seeds, orange zest, berries

Equipment

  • Large Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Blender
  • Verrines
  • Sieve

Method
 

  1. Pour the plant-based milk into a large bowl. Add the chia seeds, vanilla, and maple syrup. Whisk well, let it sit for 10 minutes, whisk again, and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours until it has a pudding texture.
  2. In a blender, combine the plant-based yogurt, silken tofu (or cashews), maple syrup, and lemon juice. Blend until you have a smooth, thick, yet airy cream. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  3. Prepare the strong coffee and stir in the maple syrup. Quickly dip your biscuit pieces into the coffee, being careful not to soak them completely. Arrange these dipped biscuits at the bottom of each serving glass.
  4. Add a layer of the chia pudding, followed by a layer of the plant-based cream. Smooth the surface of the cream layer.
  5. Dust the top with sifted cocoa powder.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving, ideally 4 hours.
