Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup milk of choice (whole milk preferred for extra protein)
- 1 serving vanilla protein powder (whey recommended)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
Toppings (Optional)
- Additional raspberries
- Cacao nibs
- Bee pollen
- Almond butter
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the chia seeds, Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, and frozen raspberries into a mixing bowl, jar, or bowl. Mix together thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
- Refrigerate and Stir: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, though preferably overnight to allow the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and create pudding texture. After about 5 minutes, stir again to prevent clumping for a smoother consistency.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Once the pudding has thickened, add your favorite toppings such as fresh raspberries, cacao nibs, bee pollen, and almond butter. Enjoy immediately as a high-protein, nutritious snack or breakfast option.
Notes
- Using frozen raspberries is important as they melt slowly, imparting better flavor to the pudding.
- Stirring after 5 minutes helps avoid chia seed clumps and promotes even texture.
- Whole milk is recommended for higher protein content but you can use any milk of choice to fit dietary needs.
- Refrigerating overnight enhances flavor and texture but a minimum of 1 hour also works.
