Ingredients

• 100 grams sago pearls
• 500 ml unsweetened almond milk
• 60 grams vanilla-flavored protein powder
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons chopped almonds
• 100 grams fresh berries (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sago pearls in cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed sago pearls and almond milk. Allow the sago to soak in the milk for about 10 minutes.

Step 3

After soaking, place the saucepan on medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sago becomes translucent, about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Once the sago is cooked, add the protein powder, sugar, and salt to the pan. Stir well until the protein powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract, stirring to combine.

Step 7

Pour the pudding mixture into serving bowls and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 8

Refrigerate the sago pudding for at least 2 hours to allow it to set properly.

Step 9

Before serving, garnish with chopped almonds and fresh berries for added texture and flavor.

Step 10

Enjoy your high-protein sago pudding as a nutritious dessert or snack!
