Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup protein powder (chocolate or vanilla flavor)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey, to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Ingredients
- Combine dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, cocoa powder, protein powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
- Add wet ingredients: Pour in the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly to ensure there are no lumps and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Step 2: Chill
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken the pudding.
Step 3: Serve
- Stir and serve: After chilling, stir the pudding to combine. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency. Serve in bowls or jars, and top with fresh fruit, nuts, or additional chocolate if desired.
