High Protein, Low Fat Pistachio Pudding
Be sure to use a high power blender – this must be completely smooth although a few pieces of pistachio are ok and can add a bit of texture. If you prefer this, add the pistachios after you have blended the whites to completely smooth. Then blend in the pistachios to your desired consistency. This tastes better after an overnight rest in the refrigerator.
Servings: 2
Calories: 344kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound eggs whites 1 pound carton
- 1 scoop protein powder sugar-free vanilla flavor, such as Jay Robb
- 1/2-1 cup half n half or cashew milk, unsweetened or coconut or hemp beverage for nut-free, plus more as needed
- 1/4 cup pistachios raw, shells removed (I like Trader Joes brand), optional
- 1/2-3/4 teaspoon stevia glycerite or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon pistachio extract or almond extract
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Lightly scramble the egg whites in a large nonstick pan over medium heat until just set. Set aside to cool for a few minutes. (You can also cook them in a microwave-safe glass bowl in the microwave – just microwave on high and check after a few minutes – they cook quickly once they turn opaque and begin to solidify.)
- Break up the egg whites and transfer them to a blender. Add remaining pudding ingredients and blend until completely smooth, adjusting salt, vanilla, and sweetener, as desired. Add more cashew milk, if desired but the pudding will thicken a bit as it sits. Divide between 2 serving dishes and refrigerate overnight.
