High Protein Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding

A nutritious and delicious high protein chocolate chia seed pudding that’s easy to make and perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 cups almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk the ingredients together: In a medium-sized bowl, start by adding 2 cups of almond milk. Pour in 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder. Use a whisk to mix these two ingredients together thoroughly. Add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
  2. Incorporate chia seeds: Once the base is smooth, sprinkle 1/4 cup of chia seeds into the bowl and stir well to combine.
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the pudding to sit for at least 240 minutes (ideally overnight) to thicken.
  4. Final stir: After chilling, give it a good stir to break up any clumps and make it creamy.
  5. Serve and enjoy: Serve in bowls or jars with optional toppings like fresh fruits, nuts, or shredded coconut.

Notes

Experiment with different toppings or sweeteners to suit your preference. For a creamier texture, blend ingredients (excluding chia seeds) before combining.
