Ingredients
- 1 serving vegan chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoons cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
- 3/4 to 1 cup milk of choice (cold)
- 1 tablespoon almond butter or coconut butter (for nut-free, use sunflower seed butter)
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients and milk: Combine 1 serving of vegan chocolate protein powder, 2 tablespoons of cacao powder or cocoa powder, and 3/4 cup of cold milk in a bowl. Stir thoroughly until most lumps have dissolved. Adjust the consistency by adding up to an additional 1/4 cup of milk one tablespoon at a time as needed.
- Add nut or coconut butter: Once the mixture is smooth, add 1 tablespoon of creamy almond butter, peanut butter, or melted coconut butter. Stir well until the mixture reaches a thick pudding consistency.
- Chill or serve: You can refrigerate the pudding for up to 8 hours to enhance its texture or serve immediately if preferred.
Notes
- Use a plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or oat milk to keep the recipe vegan.
- For nut-free options, substitute almond butter with sunflower seed butter or coconut butter.
- Adjust the sweetness by choosing flavored protein powder or adding a natural sweetener if desired.
- Refrigerating the pudding helps it thicken and develop a creamier texture.
