Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder (approximately 30g)
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk)
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 0% fat, your preference)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch salt (optional, to enhance sweetness)
  • to taste Sweetener (stevia, erythritol, or a touch of maple syrup – optional)

Equipment

  • Medium-sized bowl or tall glass
  • Whisk
  • Airtight container

Method
 

  1. In a medium-sized bowl or a tall glass, pour in the unsweetened almond milk. Add the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. If you're using a sweetener, add it now. Stir these ingredients together thoroughly until the yogurt is well incorporated into the milk, creating a smooth base.

  2. Add the scoop of protein powder and the chia seeds to the wet mixture. If you're using a pinch of salt, add it now as well.

  3. This is a crucial step for achieving a smooth, lump-free pudding and activating the chia seeds. Whisk the mixture vigorously for about 1-2 minutes, ensuring all the protein powder is fully dissolved and there are no dry clumps. The chia seeds will also start to absorb some liquid, contributing to thickening.
  4. Once everything is well combined, cover the bowl or glass. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or ideally 1-2 hours, to allow the pudding to thicken and the chia seeds to work their magic. The longer it chills, the thicker and more pudding-like it will become.
  5. After chilling, give the pudding a quick stir. If it’s too thick for your liking, you can add a splash more almond milk to reach your desired consistency. Spoon the Guilt Free Creamy Simple Protein Pudding into bowls or glasses and top with your favorite healthy toppings.

Notes

Best enjoyed chilled. Stores well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
