Protein Pudding Recipe
Description
This Protein Pudding Recipe uses collagen powder as the protein base mixed with cacao powder for chocolate flavor and natural sweetness from maple syrup. Almond butter adds creaminess and richness, while hemp milk thins the mixture to a pudding consistency. The ingredients are combined in a small bowl and stirred thoroughly to achieve a smooth, cohesive pudding texture.
The resulting pudding is thick and sticky, with flavors of chocolate and nut butter evident. Adjusting milk quantity by small increments allows control over pudding thickness, and different nut butters can be used to vary flavor and mouthfeel. Substitutes like cocoa powder or honey change taste and texture subtly.
The pudding is served immediately and can be topped with ingredients of choice to add texture or contrast. Its simplicity and straightforward method make it convenient for an on-the-go protein-rich snack.
Using canned coconut milk instead of hemp milk yields a richer, more indulgent pudding but increases calorie count. Variations in sweetener used can also alter flavor and thickness balance.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons collagen powder
- 1 teaspoon cacao powder
- ½ tablespoon maple syrup Add more based on taste.
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- ¾ tablespoon hemp milk May need a splash more depending on consistency.
Instructions
- In a small bowl combine all the ingredients.
- Mix well until all the cacao powder is combined.
- Top with your favorites and enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Any nut butter can be used; almond hazelnut butter provides a smooth, indulgent texture.
- Cocoa powder may replace cacao powder, resulting in a sweeter pudding.
- Honey can substitute maple syrup but may thicken the pudding; add milk gradually to adjust consistency.
- For a richer pudding, swap hemp milk with canned coconut milk, noting increased calories.
- Add milk in small increments to achieve your preferred pudding thickness, as the mix can be sticky.
