Chocolate Protein Pudding (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Base Ingredients

01 - 1 cup (250 g) Greek yogurt – full fat for a creamier texture, or low fat for a lighter option

02 - ½ cup (40 g) protein powder – chocolate or vanilla for flavor, or unflavored for flexibility

03 - 1-2 tbsp nut butter (like almond or peanut butter) – adds creaminess and healthy fats

→ Optional Add-ins

04 - 1 tbsp cocoa powder (optional for a richer chocolate taste)

05 - 1-2 tbsp maple syrup or honey – adjust based on taste and protein powder flavor

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

07 - ½ tsp vanilla extract – for extra sweetness and depth

08 - 1 tbsp chia seeds – for added fiber and texture

09 - A pinch of sea salt – enhances the flavor and balances sweetness

# Instructions:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, protein powder, nut butter, and any optional ingredients (like cocoa powder or vanilla extract).

02 - Stir thoroughly with a whisk or spoon until the ingredients are well-blended and smooth. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add a splash of milk until the pudding reaches your desired consistency.

03 - Taste and adjust the sweetness with maple syrup or honey if needed.

04 - For added texture, stir in chia seeds and let the pudding sit for 5 minutes, allowing the seeds to thicken the mixture slightly.

05 - Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

# Notes:

01 - You can simplify this recipe to just two ingredients: Greek yogurt and flavored protein powder

02 - Customize with your favorite protein powder flavors and mix-ins for endless variations
