Description

Protein chia pudding with 20 grams of protein and 3 grams of sugar per serving. Easy to prepare for a healthy breakfast or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 scoop (25 grams) vanilla protein powder
  • 1 1/41/2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk, plus more as needed
  • 4 Tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1/2 Tablespoon maple syrup, honey or sweetener of choice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt)
  • Granola, for topping
  • Toppings: fresh berries, granola and nut butter

Instructions

  1. In a bowl or mason jar, whisk together almond milk and protein powder until protein powder has dissolved. If using a mason jar, shake to combine.
  2. Add chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir or shake until well combined. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then stir/shake again to break up clumps.
