Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup low-fat milk
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond milk powder
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats


Instructions

  1. Combine yogurt and protein powder: In a medium-sized bowl, combine 1 cup of plain yogurt with 2 tablespoons of vanilla protein powder. Stir well to begin blending the creamy base.
  2. Add almond milk powder: Add 1/4 cup of almond milk powder to the mixture and stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly blended for added creaminess and nutrition.
  3. Mix in vanilla extract: Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract and then add an additional teaspoon of vanilla extract for enhanced flavor to deepen the pudding’s aroma.
  4. Add chia seeds and cinnamon: Add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds followed by 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon to add texture, fiber, and a subtle warming spice to the pudding.
  5. Pour in milk: Slowly pour in 1/2 cup of low-fat milk, stirring continuously to prevent any clumps from forming and ensure a smooth consistency.
  6. Add rolled oats: Stir in 1/4 cup of rolled oats to contribute a hearty texture and additional fiber to the pudding.
  7. Add remaining chia seeds: Add the second tablespoon of chia seeds and mix well to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture for extra nutritional benefits.
  8. Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds and oats to absorb moisture and thicken the pudding.
  9. Stir before serving: After chilling, give the pudding a good stir to ensure a smooth and consistent texture before serving.
  10. Serve: Scoop the pudding into individual bowls or jars and enjoy a creamy and protein-rich banana pudding yogurt.

Notes

  • This pudding is best enjoyed chilled and can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
  • Use low-fat or dairy-free milk alternatives based on dietary preferences.
  • Adjust honey quantity to taste for desired sweetness.
  • For an extra banana flavor, mash the ripe banana into the mixture before chilling.
  • Chia seeds help thicken the pudding and add nutritional value; soaking time is essential.
