Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt full fat for a creamier texture, or low fat for a lighter option
  • ½ cup protein powder chocolate or vanilla for flavor, or unflavored for flexibility
  • 1-2 tbsp nut butter like almond or peanut butter; adds creaminess and healthy fats
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder optional for a richer chocolate taste
  • 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey adjust based on taste and protein powder flavor
  • 30 ml Milk of choice almond, oat, or dairy milk; add gradually only if needed for desired consistency
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds optional, for added texture and to help thicken the pudding

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk or Spoon

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, protein powder, nut butter, and any optional ingredients (like cocoa powder or vanilla extract or cocoa powder).
  2. Stir thoroughly with a whisk or spoon until the ingredients are well-blended and smooth. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add a splash of milk until the pudding reaches your desired consistency.
  3. Taste and adjust the sweetness with maple syrup or honey if needed.
  4. For added texture, stir in chia seeds and let the pudding sit for 5 minutes, allowing the seeds to thicken the mixture slightly.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
