Lemon Coconut Protein Pudding

Print Recipe

A refreshing and creamy protein-packed dessert combining tangy lemon and tropical coconut flavors. Perfect for a healthy snack or post-workout treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full fat, canned)
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 1–2 lemons)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: shredded coconut, lemon slices

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine the coconut milk, protein powder, lemon juice, lemon zest, chia seeds, honey, vanilla extract, and salt.
  2. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
  3. Pour the mixture into 4 small bowls or jars.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until set. The chia seeds will thicken the pudding.
  5. Serve chilled, topped with shredded coconut and lemon slices if desired.

Notes

This pudding is naturally gluten-free and can be made vegan-friendly by using a plant-based protein powder. If the pudding is too thick, add a splash of water or more coconut milk before refrigerating. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
