Here’s a simple, high-protein banana cream pudding you can make in a few minutes—no cooking required:
🍌 Banana Cream Protein Pudding
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- ¼ cup milk (any kind—adjust for thickness)
- 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Optional add-ins:
- Crushed biscuits or granola (for “crust” feel)
- Chia seeds (for extra thickness + fiber)
- Whipped cream on top
Instructions:
- Mash the banana until smooth.
- Add Greek yogurt and mix well.
- Stir in protein powder slowly to avoid lumps.
- Add milk a little at a time until you get a pudding-like texture.
- Mix in vanilla, salt, and sweetener if needed.
- Chill for 20–30 minutes (optional, but improves texture).
Approx macros (will vary):
- Protein: ~25–35g
- Carbs: ~25–35g
- Fat: ~2–5g
Tips:
- For thicker pudding, use less milk or add 1 tsp chia seeds.
- For a dessert vibe, layer it with crushed biscuits and slices of banana.
- Freeze for 1–2 hours if you want an ice-cream-like texture.
If you want, I can tweak this for weight loss, bulking, or dairy-free versions.
