Description
A delightful and healthy treat that satisfies sweet cravings while providing a boost of protein. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 3 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp dark chocolate chips (melted)
Instructions
- In a jar or bowl, whisk together the almond milk and Greek yogurt. For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender.
- In the container where you’ll keep your chia pudding, combine the protein powder, chia seeds, and cocoa powder.
- Slowly pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring well to combine.
- Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes. Then, whisk it again to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together.
- Optional: Melt the dark chocolate and mix it with 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt. Spoon this over the pudding after it has sat for 10 minutes.
- Cover the container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight for the best texture.
- Serve the pudding straight from the fridge in bowls or jars, topped with fresh fruits, nuts, or extra dark chocolate chips if desired.
Notes
For extra creaminess, blend the mixture longer. Adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
