Ingredients
- 1 cup 250 g Greek yogurt – full fat for a creamier texture, or low fat for a lighter option
- ½ cup 40 g 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
- Milk of choice almond, oat, or dairy milk – only if needed for consistency
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix 1 cup of Greek yogurt with 1 scoop of protein powder.
- Adjust the Texture: Stir thoroughly until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add a splash of milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Sweeten to Taste: Add a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or a few drops of vanilla extract if you prefer a sweeter pudding.
- Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately, or transfer to airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Notes
- For the smoothest pudding, whey protein powder is the best choice. Vegan protein powders can also work—just add a splash of milk to maintain a silky texture.
