Description
This Greek Yogurt Protein Pudding is creamy, thick, and easy to make with a handful of simple ingredients. It’s a quick high-protein snack that works well for breakfast, meal prep, or when you want something sweet without spending much time in the kitchen.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk of choice
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder, optional
- Fresh berries, for topping, optional
Instructions
- Add the ingredients: Place Greek yogurt, milk, protein powder, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla in a bowl.
- Mix well: Whisk until smooth and creamy with no lumps. For a chocolate version, add the cocoa powder.
- Adjust the texture: Add a small splash of milk if the pudding is too thick.
- Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The chia seeds will help the pudding thicken.

Notes
Storage
