Overnight Chia Pudding with Protein and Raspberries

Ingredients

• Chia seeds 3 tbsp
• Whey protein powder 1 scoop
• Unsweetened almond milk 1 cup
• Raspberries 1/2 cup

Method

1. Measure Ingredients. Use a tablespoon to measure 3 tablespoons of chia seeds and place them into a medium-sized bowl or jar. Add 1 scoop (30g) of whey protein powder to the same container.
   Tip: Use a container with a lid if you plan to store the pudding in the fridge.
2. Add Almond Milk. Pour 1 cup (240g) of unsweetened almond milk into the bowl or jar with the chia seeds and protein powder. Stir well with a spoon or whisk to combine all ingredients evenly and prevent clumps.
   Tip: Mix thoroughly so the protein powder dissolves and the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
3. Refrigerate Overnight. Cover the bowl or jar with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Let the mixture soak for at least 8 hours or overnight. During this time, the chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a thick pudding texture.
   Tip: If you want a smoother texture, stir the pudding once or twice during the first hour of soaking.
4. Add Raspberries and Serve. After the pudding has thickened, remove it from the fridge. Gently stir the pudding to check consistency. Top with 1/2 cup of fresh or thawed raspberries before serving.
   Tip: You can mash some raspberries into the pudding for extra flavor or keep them whole for texture.

Pro tips

• Use a jar with a lid to make it easy to shake and mix the pudding before refrigerating.
• If the pudding is too thick in the morning, stir in a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
