Strawberry Banana Chia Pudding
Creamy, fruity, and packed with protein and fiber. This strawberry banana chia pudding is the perfect make-ahead breakfast or snack.
Servings: 2 servings
Equipment
- glass jar or food container minimum 3-cup capacity
Ingredients
- 1 medium banana ripe
- 1 heaping cup small diced strawberries fresh not frozen
- ½ cup milk
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder I use Leanfit vanilla whey
- ¼ cup chia seeds
To Serve
- fresh strawberry and banana slices
- granola
- vanilla greek yogurt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients except chia seeds to your blender.
- Blend until completely smooth, about 30-seconds. Transfer contents into a glass jar or food container.
- Add chia seeds. Close the container and shake vigorously to combine. Refrigerate for at least 6-hours, or ideally, overnight (this will take longer to set-up than plain chia pudding). For best results, stir after the first 30-minutes in the fridge.
- When you're ready to eat, transfer to a bowl and serve with Greek yogurt, fresh strawberry and banana slices, and a sprinkle of granola. Enjoy!
Notes
- Do not use frozen fruit for this recipe, or your pudding won't thicken.
- Storage: Cover and refrigerate for up to four days. Stir daily to prevent clumps.
