Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Crust:
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour 180g
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted (60ml)
  • 2 tbsp honey 30ml
  • A pinch of salt
  • Chocolate Protein Pudding Filling:
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk 480ml
  • ¼ cup chia seeds 60g
  • ½ cup chocolate protein powder 50g
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 30g
  • ¼ cup maple syrup 60ml
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 5ml
  • Topping optional:
  • Fresh berries for garnish
  • Mint leaves for garnish

Method
 

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mix the almond flour, melted coconut oil, honey, and salt in a bowl until you get a dough-like consistency.
  3. Press this mixture firmly into a pie dish, ensuring it’s evenly spread.
  4. Pop it into the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until it’s golden brown. Once done, let it cool.
  5. Whipping up the Chocolate Protein Pudding:
  6. In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond milk, chia seeds, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  7. Let this mixture sit for about 30 minutes. The chia seeds will expand, giving your pudding the desired thickness and texture.
  8. Assembling your Chocolate Protein Pudding Pie:
  9. Pour the pudding mixture over the cooled crust.
  10. Smooth out the top using a spatula.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the pudding to set.
  12. Garnish and Serve:
  13. Once set, garnish your Chocolate Protein Pudding Pie with fresh berries and mint leaves.

Notes

If you’re looking for an even richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate protein powder.
To ensure the crust doesn’t crumble, press it firmly into the pie dish before baking.
If the pudding seems too thick, add a tad more almond milk and whisk.
  • Enjoy your Chocolate Protein Pudding Pie chilled, right out of the refrigerator.
  • Pair it with a cold glass of almond or soy milk for added flavor.
  • Consider a dollop of whipped coconut cream on top for an extra touch of indulgence.
  • This pie is not just a dessert; it can also be a great post-workout treat or even a filling breakfast!
