Protein Chia Parfait
Feeds 2 | Preparation time 25-30 minutes
What to do:
- In a bowl, mix together the chia seeds, milk, yoghurt, protein powder (if using), vanilla extract and sweetener. Make sure that no clumps of chia seeds remain. Set aside in the refrigerator for 2 hrs plus; I often leave mine overnight.
- When you are ready to assemble your parfaits, prepare your mango and apple by dicing it into small cubes.
- With the back of a fork or a blender, mash or blend up a large handful of blueberries and then stir in about 6 tablespoons of the soaked chia pudding until the purple colour is evenly distributed.
- Now it’s time to layer up with layers and toppings of choice! I alternate with a layer of chia pudding, diced green apple cubes, granola, blueberry chia, mango cubes and finish off with crunchy granola, fresh berries, dried goldenberries and some pumpkin seeds. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
50g chia seeds
380ml milk of choice (400ml if you like your chia pudding more runny)
2 tbsp. yoghurt (plant based if preferred)
2 tbsp. protein powder of choice (I love pea and soya bean protein varieties). If not using. Just use 50ml less milk
½ tsp. vanilla extract
2-3 tsp. maple syrup or sweetener of choice, to taste
For the layers:
- Mango, cut into little cubes (approx. ¼ a mango or defrosted mango)
- For the blueberry layer: a large handful of blueberries, to be mixed up with some of the chia pudding mixture)
- 1 small apple, cut into little cubes
- 6 tablespoons of granola (this can be shop-bought or home-made)
To decorate:
Fresh berries (I love fresh raspberries and blueberries), dried goldenberries and pumpkin seeds.
