Perfect for a make ahead breakfast, dessert or post workout treat. A light fruity chocolate pudding. You can serve this hot or cold and leftovers keep well in the fridge. I used a vegan chocolate protein powder and Alpro’s protein soy milk to give this a protein boost. Delicious served with coconut yogurt.

Adding chocolate protein powder is an easy way to cram in more protein to this dish. The oats provide fibre and the oranges natural sweetness. You can use any milk alternative – soy milk tends to have a higher protein content naturally. I have used xylitol but any granulated sweetener would work. Erythritol would also work well or coconut sugar for a richer taste.

Experiment with different fruit – frozen bags of berries would be ideal in this dessert.
