Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup (250 g) Greek yogurt (low fat or full fat)
  • ½ cup (40 g) protein powder (chocolate or vanilla flavor recommended)

Optional Mix-ins

  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 to 2 tbsp maple syrup (to taste)
  • Milk of choice (if needed to thin)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, add 1 cup of Greek yogurt and ½ cup of your preferred protein powder. Optionally add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to enhance the flavor.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Use a whisk or spoon to stir the mixture vigorously until it reaches a smooth pudding-like consistency. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add a small amount of your chosen milk to loosen it to the desired texture.
  3. Adjust Sweetness: Taste the pudding and add 1 to 2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey, stirring well to incorporate the sweetness evenly.
  4. Serve or Store: Enjoy the pudding immediately as a nutritious snack or dessert. Alternatively, transfer it into an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days for later consumption.

Notes

  • The type of protein powder used affects the thickness; use milk to adjust consistency if it becomes too thick.
  • Maple syrup is optional and can be substituted with honey or another sweetener to suit your taste and dietary preferences.
  • Using full-fat Greek yogurt will yield a richer pudding; low-fat versions reduce calories.
  • Keep refrigerated if not serving immediately, and consume within 3 days to maintain freshness.
