Peanut Butter Protein Chia Pudding (dairy & gluten-free)
Description
The Peanut Butter Protein Chia Pudding uses chia seeds combined with vegan vanilla protein powder and almond milk to create a base that thickens as the seeds absorb liquid. Natural peanut butter and maple syrup add flavor and sweetness. Mixing the ingredients, then resting the pudding for 4 hours or overnight, allows it to set.
The texture is creamy and thick with a nutty peanut butter flavor and subtle sweetness from maple syrup. Optional chocolate chips add small bursts of chocolate. The recipe can yield one large serving or two smaller snack portions.
Mixing in a bowl or directly in a jar both work; shaking the jar is an alternative to blending. The pudding thickens more the longer it rests, up to 24 hours, and stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
