Ingredients
Protein Pudding
- ⅔ cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt (150g)
- ⅓ cup Whey Vanilla Protein Powder (30g)
- 4 teaspoons Banana Cream Flavor Instant Pudding Mix, sugar free (11g)
- 2 teaspoons Unsweetened Almond Milk (10ml), add more as needed
Layers
- 3-4 crushed Vanilla Wafers, sugar free recommended (14g)
- ½ medium Banana, sliced (60g)
Instructions
- Prepare the Protein Pudding: In a mixing bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt, whey vanilla protein powder, banana cream flavor instant pudding mix, and unsweetened almond milk. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Adjust Consistency: Gradually add almond milk a little at a time while mixing, until the pudding reaches a smooth, creamy pudding-like consistency suitable for layering.
- Assemble the Pudding Layers: In a serving jar or glass, start by adding a layer of the protein pudding at the bottom, followed by a layer of crushed vanilla wafers, then a layer of sliced banana.
- Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process to create two full layers of pudding, wafers, and banana slices, finishing with a pudding layer on top if desired.
- Serve or Chill: The pudding can be enjoyed immediately or chilled for a while to enhance the flavors. No baking or cooking is required.
Notes
- Use sugar-free instant pudding mix and vanilla wafers to keep the recipe no-sugar added and healthier.
- Adjust almond milk quantity carefully to achieve desired pudding thickness without thinning it too much.
- For best texture, chill the assembled pudding for 30 minutes before serving.
- This recipe yields 1-2 servings depending on serving size.
- Can be customized with other types of protein powder or plant-based yogurt for dietary preferences.
