Ingredients

  • 1 scoop about 25 grams vanilla protein powder
  • 1¼ to 1½ cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk add more if needed
  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ½ tablespoon maple syrup honey, or your preferred sweetener
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt or non-dairy yogurt
  • Granola for layering or topping
  • Fresh berries nut butter, or any other toppings you enjoy

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl or mason jar, mix almond milk and protein powder until smooth. If using a jar, you can simply close it and shake well to combine.
  • Stir in chia seeds, sweetener, and vanilla extract if using. Mix or shake again until everything blends evenly.
  • Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes, then stir or shake once more to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together.
  • Cover the bowl or jar and place it in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours, or leave it overnight. Once set, the protein chia seed pudding should be thick and creamy.
  • When ready to eat, divide the pudding into two portions. Add layers of granola if you like, then top with Greek yogurt, berries, nut butter, or any of your favorite toppings.
