Ingredients
5 cups Greek yogurt, full-fat, plain or vanilla
4 scoops chocolate protein powder (approximately 2 to 3 tablespoons per scoop)
3 to 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons maple syrup
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, and cocoa powder.
- Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir everything together until smooth.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the pudding for at least one hour to allow it to thicken.
- When ready to serve, enjoy with optional toppings such as whipped cream, shaved chocolate, or fresh berries.
Notes
- For a vanilla protein pudding, replace the chocolate protein powder with vanilla protein powder and skip the cocoa powder.
- You can use other protein powders like strawberry for different flavor options.
- Customize your pudding with toppings like nuts, granola, or coconut flakes for extra texture.
- Store protein pudding in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- If freezing, the texture may change once thawed, but it can be stored in an airtight container for up to a month.
