Protein Yogurt Pudding (Printable Recipe)

Rich, creamy, high-protein yogurt pudding you can whip up in just minutes—ideal for snacks or post-gym fuel.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 1 cup (250 g) Greek yogurt, full fat or low fat
02 - 1/2 cup (40 g) protein powder, chocolate, vanilla, or unflavored
03 - 1 to 2 tablespoons almond butter or peanut butter
04 - 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey, to taste
05 - Splash of almond, oat, or dairy milk, as needed to adjust consistency

→ Optional Add-ins

06 - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
07 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds
09 - Pinch of sea salt

# Steps to Follow:

01 - In a medium bowl, add Greek yogurt and gradually stir in protein powder to avoid clumping. Mix until mostly smooth.
02 - Stir in nut butter and your choice of sweetener. Mix thoroughly to incorporate healthy fats and enhance texture.
03 - If desired, add cocoa powder, vanilla extract, sea salt, or chia seeds to enhance flavor and texture.
04 - Add milk a splash at a time, stirring continuously until a creamy, smooth consistency is achieved.
05 - Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. Mix well to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
06 - If using chia seeds, let the pudding rest 5 minutes to thicken. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For best texture, stir well before serving if refrigerated in advance.
02 - Adjust liquid based on protein powder absorption; some varieties require more milk.
03 - Add chia seeds only if you plan to refrigerate, as they expand and thicken over time.
