Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (120 calories per scoop, e.g. Optimum Nutrition brand)
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/3 cup vanilla almond milk, unsweetened (30 calories per cup)
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 1 tablespoon sugar free cheesecake pudding mix
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons whipped topping

Instructions

  1. Blend Ingredients: Add the vanilla protein powder, pumpkin puree, vanilla almond milk, xanthan gum, sugar free cheesecake pudding mix, and ground cinnamon into a food processor. Blend all the ingredients together for at least 5 minutes until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
  2. Chill the Pudding: Transfer the fluffy pumpkin pudding mixture into serving bowls or containers and chill in the refrigerator until ready to eat, allowing the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
  3. Add Whipped Topping: Just before serving, top the chilled pumpkin pudding fluff with 2 tablespoons of whipped topping to add creaminess and a touch of indulgence.

Notes

  • Ensure the protein powder is unflavored or vanilla flavored for best taste.
  • Using unsweetened almond milk keeps the pudding low in calories and carbs.
  • Xanthan gum helps to thicken and stabilize the pudding without added calories.
  • Chilling the pudding enhances the texture and allows it to thicken further.
  • This recipe is customizable by adding spices such as nutmeg or ginger for autumn flavors.
