INGREDIENTS
1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (245g)
1/3 cup Egg Whites (80g)
1 large Egg Yolk (18g)
1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste (5g)
1 tablespoon Honey (21g)
1 tablespoon Chia Seeds (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 325°F (optional, if you prefer a baked custard texture) or prepare a double boiler for a stovetop version.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, egg whites, and egg yolk. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Stir in the vanilla bean paste and honey, making sure the flavor is evenly distributed.
Fold in the chia seeds, which will add a slight texture as they swell in the custard.
For a baked version, pour the mixture into a lightly greased ramekin or baking dish, place it in a water bath, and bake for 25-30 minutes until set. For a stovetop version, transfer the mixture to a saucepan, heat over low heat and stir constantly for about 10-12 minutes until thickened slightly.
Allow the custard to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or chilled for a refreshing, protein-packed treat.
