Chocolate, Banana & Peanut Protein Pudding
This Chocolate, Banana & Peanut Protein Pudding is designed to be a protein-packed breakfast or dessert. It's a guilt-free indulgence that allows you to enjoy the flavours you love while supporting your protein intake and maintaining a balanced lifestyle.COOKING METHOD: Dehydrating, Prep & Go*Note: recipe below provides instructions for dehydrating and making your own banana chips but you can simply buy them instead
Equipment
- 1 Dehydrator (optional)
Ingredients
- ½ scoop chocolate whey protein powder *see notes
- 1.5 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tbsps banana chips
- 2 tbsps peanuts, shelled
- 2 tsp chocolate chips
Instructions
If dehydrating your own bananas:
- 1. Slice banana into ¼″ thick slices
- 2. Disperse on dehydrating tray and dehydrate at 135℉ for about 7 hours
- 3. Once banana slices are dehydrated, combine with remaining ingredients in a sealable container or bag. That's it!
If buying all ingredients:
- 1. Combine all ingredients in a sealable container or bag. That's it! *Store bought banana chips have a lighter flavour. For more noticeable flavour and crunch, keep banana chips separate and add in right before you eat (after cooking/rehydrating the pudding)
To cook/rehydrate:
- 1. In a bowl or container, combine pudding mix with ½ cup boiled water and stir. Let sit for 12 minutes. Stir again and then enjoy.
Notes
- If you don't have chocolate protein powder, other flavours, such as vanilla or caramel would work just fine, however, you would want to increase the amount of chocolate chips in order to get a strong enough chocolate flavour.
- If you make your own banana chips, there is a much more notable and sweet banana flavour; and note that it’s best to use ripened bananas (having a few brown spots on the peel).

How to "rehydrate" before consuming:
- Add 1/2 cup boiling water
- Stir
- Let sit for approx. 12 mins
- Stir & enjoy
Rehydrating Tips:
- Use a container with a lid to contain as much heat as possible… Have a packable insulated container? Even better.
- After soak time is finished, add more hot water if you find the meal dry or crunchy.
Storage Guidelines:
- Keep stored in a sealable bag or container
- Tip: Vacuum sealing can more than triple the shelf life
- Keep stored in a cool, dry and dark place
- For longer term storage, store in your freezer (especially if not vacuum sealed)
- When dried and stored properly, this should have a shelf life of several months.
