Ingredients

  • 1 scoop (25 grams) vanilla protein powder
  • 1 ¼-½ cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk plus more as needed
  • 4 Tablespoons chia seeds
  • ½ Tablespoon maple syrup honey or sweetener of choice
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt)
  • Granola for topping
  • Toppings: fresh berries granola and nut butter.

Instructions

  • In a bowl or mason jar, whisk together almond milk and protein powder until protein powder has dissolved. If you’re using a mason jar, you can put the lid on and shake the mixture to combine.
    Almond milk and protein powder mixed together in a jar.
  • Add chia seeds, maple syrup and vanilla. Stir or shake mixture until well combined. Once the chia pudding mixture is well combined, let it sit for 5 minutes, give it another stir/shake to break up any clumps of chia seeds.

  • Cover and put the mixture in the fridge to “set" for 1-2 hours or overnight. The chia pudding should be nice and thick, not liquidy.
