This recipe shows you how to make a wonderfully filling Protein Chia Pudding, perfect for a satisfying breakfast. We focus on getting the liquid ratio just right so your pudding sets perfectly every time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or sweetener (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a jar or container, combine the chia seeds and your chosen milk. Stir well to prevent clumping.
  2. Add the protein powder, sweetener (if using), and vanilla extract. Whisk or stir vigorously until the protein powder is fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
  3. Let the mixture sit on the counter for 5 minutes, then stir again thoroughly. This second stir is key to smooth pudding.
  4. Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the pudding has thickened to your desired consistency.
  5. If the pudding is too thick in the morning, stir in a splash more milk until you reach your preferred texture. Serve cold.

Notes

  • For a thicker pudding, start with less liquid, perhaps 3/4 cup, and add more as needed after the initial set.
  • If you prefer a sweeter pudding, increase the sweetener to your taste.
  • Feel free to layer with fresh berries or nuts before serving for added texture.
