Ingredients
  • ½ cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin
  • 1 container (150g) Chocolate Greek yogurt (vanilla or espresso flavor will also work)
  • 1½ scoops Ascent cappuccino protein
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ tsp Cinnamon
  • ⅓ cup chocolate chips (melted)
  • 1 tsp. instant espresso powder (more for a stronger coffee taste)
Instructions
  1. Add chia seeds, almond milk, greek yogurt, and protein powder to a large bowl. Whisk together until combined.
  2. Take ⅓ of mixture and put into a smaller bowl to make the chocolate layer.
  3. For the chocolate layer, melt chocolate chips in the microwave. Whisk in melted chocolate chips and instant espresso powder.
  4. To the other bowl, which will be the pumpkin layer, add canned pumpkin, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Mix until combined.
  5. Place both bowls into the fridge for 4-5 hours, or overnight to let the chia seeds soak up liquid and thicken to make the pudding.
