Carrot Cake Protein Pudding 

If you're someone who wished they could eat carrot cake for breakfast without the energy high and then crash then this protein pudding version is going to be your new favourite thing. With 29g of plant-based protein, less than 400 calories a serving, pre and probiotics, fibre, and healthy fats, this balanced breakfast or snack will satisfy your sweet tooth while nourishing your body and soul.

I have a whole bunch of protein pudding recipes on my blog as I go through serious phases of eating one of these every single day for weeks (or months) on end. They're so simple to make, are balanced with both macro and micronutrients, and super customizable so it's hard to get sick of them! Some other flavour you might want to try next are Chocolate Cheesecake or Raspberry Protein Pudding.

Why You'll Love This Recipe 

Easy to prepare. 

Customizable. 

Balanced in macronutrients and micronutrients. 

Tastes like dessert but healthy enough for breakfast!

Less than 400 calories and 29g of plant protein per serving. 

 

What You'll Need

Vegan greek yogurt. I like the Maison Riviera Oat Milk one if you're in Canada. 

Vanilla protein powder, I linked the one I used with a discount code below!

One carrot.

Ceylon cinnamon or saigon cinnamon. 

Walnuts or another preferred nut or seed.

Shredded coconut for the classic carrot cake flavour. 

Substitutions

If you can't find vegan greek yogurt you could use plain vegan yogurt and add a little more protein powder to thicken it up. 

Ceylon cinnamon, otherwise known as "true cinnamon" is milder in flavour than Saigon cinnamon. You can use whichever you have on hand, but I recommend using slightly less if you're using Saigon.

Walnuts can be replaced with any preferred nut or seed. 

Don't like coconut? Skip it!

Consider adding chopped dates, dried cranberries or raisins.
