Nothing beats digging into a bowl of smooth and creamy Chocolate Pudding! That’s exactly why I had to whip up this collagen take on the classic recipe.
Luckily, those with a sweet tooth don’t have to feel guilty about enjoying seconds. This tasty collagen recipe is packed with healthy fats thanks to the addition of creamy avocado and coconut milk. To achieve the decadent flavor, I added maple syrup, cocoa powder and a hint of vanilla to the mixture. Plus, I decided to pour in a scoop of Vital Proteins® Collagen Peptides ($25; shop now on vitalproteins.com), a standout ingredient in any sweet or savory recipe. Why? Our hydrolyzed collagen powder is super versatile since it’s unflavored, odorless and easily soluble in hot and cold liquids. Talk about a dessert to remember!
