Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding

A simple, high-protein, vegan-friendly pudding that serves as a delicious breakfast or dessert, made with chocolate protein powder and chia seeds.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, pour the almond milk and add the chocolate protein powder, maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Add the chia seeds and stir to distribute evenly.
  3. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until thickened.
  5. Serve chilled, topped with sliced banana, fresh berries, or nut butter if desired.

Notes

For a thinner pudding, add more milk before chilling. Adjust sweetener based on the sweetness of your protein powder.
