A refreshing and healthy Creamsicle Orange Chia Pudding combining the zesty flavor of fresh orange with creamy Greek yogurt and vanilla protein powder. This easy no-cook chia pudding is perfect for a nutritious breakfast or snack, featuring chia seeds that thicken to a satisfying pudding-like texture after chilling.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 naval orange (juiced)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Zest: Use a microplane to carefully zest the orange, avoiding the white pith to prevent bitterness.
  2. Juice: Slice the orange and squeeze out the juice.
  3. Mix Ingredients: In a small container, whisk together the orange juice, orange zest, Greek yogurt, and vanilla protein powder until smooth.
  4. Add Chia Seeds: Stir in the chia seeds and whisk again to distribute evenly.
  5. Refrigerate: Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the chia seeds absorb the liquid and the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
  6. Serve: Optionally top with orange segments, vanilla Greek yogurt, or whipped cream before serving and enjoy!

Notes

  • Be sure not to zest the white pith of the orange to avoid bitterness.
  • For best results, use fresh naval oranges for juicing.
  • This pudding can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • You can customize toppings based on your preference, such as fresh berries or nuts.
  • If you prefer a sweeter pudding, add a small amount of honey or maple syrup before chilling.
