Description

A quick and easy high-protein pudding made with Greek yogurt and protein powder, perfect for a nutritious snack or dessert that requires no cooking.


Ingredients

Base 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

Flavor Enhancers

  • 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

Optional

  • Milk of choice (almond, oat, or dairy milk) – only if needed for consistency


Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt and protein powder. For a thicker consistency, add cocoa powder or nut butter to enhance flavor and texture.
  2. Adjust Texture: Stir the mixture thoroughly until it becomes smooth and creamy. If the pudding is too thick, add a small amount of your chosen milk to reach the desired consistency.
  3. Sweeten as Desired: Taste the pudding and add honey, maple syrup, or vanilla extract to adjust sweetness according to your preference.
  4. Serve or Store: Serve the pudding immediately for the freshest taste, or transfer it to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • This pudding is highly customizable: choose your favorite protein powder flavor and nut butter to vary the taste.
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture or low-fat if you want a lighter option.
  • Optional cocoa powder adds a rich chocolate flavor and can be omitted for a basic taste.
  • Adjust the sweetness according to your protein powder flavor and personal preference.
  • Adding milk is optional and only necessary if you prefer a thinner pudding consistency.
