Protein Pudding Greek Yogurt (Print)

Greek yogurt, protein powder, and cocoa blend into a creamy, nourishing treat. Adjust sweetness and texture easily.

# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - 250 g Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
02 - 40 g chocolate, vanilla, or unflavored protein powder

→ Creaminess and Sweetness

03 - 1–2 tablespoons nut butter (almond or peanut butter)
04 - 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey

→ Optional Enhancements

05 - 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
06 - Milk of choice (almond, oat, or dairy), as needed
07 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds
09 - Pinch of sea salt

# Steps:

01 - Place Greek yogurt, protein powder, nut butter, and any desired optional components such as cocoa powder or vanilla extract into a mixing bowl.
02 - Whisk or stir the mixture thoroughly until smooth and fully incorporated. If the consistency is too thick, add a small amount of milk gradually until a creamy texture is achieved.
03 - Taste the mixture. If needed, blend in maple syrup or honey, adjusting the sweetness to preference.
04 - If a thicker texture is desired, gently fold in chia seeds and let the mixture stand for 5 minutes to thicken.
05 - Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to three days for enhanced flavor and texture.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Full-fat Greek yogurt delivers a creamier texture; low-fat varieties reduce overall calories.
02 - Incorporating cocoa powder and a pinch of sea salt intensifies chocolate flavor.
03 - Chia seeds can naturally thicken the mixture while boosting fiber content.
