Main Ingredients
- 5 cups Greek yogurt (full-fat, plain or vanilla)
- 4 scoops chocolate protein powder (approximately 2 to 3 tablespoons per scoop)
- 3 to 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
- Chill to Thicken: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the pudding for at least 1 hour. This allows the pudding to thicken and the flavors to meld.
- Serve: When ready to eat, give the pudding a quick stir and serve. Optionally, top with whipped cream, shaved chocolate, or fresh berries for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Adjust the cocoa powder quantity to your preferred chocolate intensity.
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture; low-fat versions can be used but may alter consistency.
- To keep it vegan, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative and ensure protein powder is plant-based.
- Maple syrup adds natural sweetness; you can substitute with honey or agave nectar.
- Protein powder scoop size can vary, so measure according to your product’s specifications.
