Creamy vegan protein rice pudding with mango. Perfect as a snack or breakfast, high in plant-based protein and quick to make.
Looking for a vegan, high-protein snack that’s filling, delicious, and oat-free? Then this recipe is just what you need. Our creamy protein rice pudding with mango is easy to prepare, not overly sweet, and has around 31 g of plant-based protein for the whole pot (2 servings). It's the perfect option for breakfast, a post-workout meal, or an afternoon snack - especially if you’re tired of the same old overnight oats.
This recipe is based on classic short-grain rice, cooked in plant milk until soft and creamy. It’s then blended with WAM Protein - Pure Vanilla, which creates a smooth texture with a light vanilla flavour - without any artificial aftertaste. Topped with ripe, juicy mango, it’s sweet enough without any syrup.
The combination of creamy rice and plant-based protein makes this a satisfying snack or breakfast.
Ingredients (serves 2)
-
50 g short-grain rice (rinsed)
-
250 ml plant milk (e.g. oat, almond, or soy)
-
A pinch of salt
-
100 ml extra plant milk (added after cooking)
-
Fresh mango, diced
Method
Place the rinsed rice in a small saucepan with 250 ml of plant milk and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for around 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and most of the milk has been absorbed.
Once cooked, stir in the additional 100 ml of milk and the WAM Protein - Pure Vanilla. Mix well until the protein powder is fully dissolved and you have a smooth, creamy consistency. Our protein powder adds a pleasant vanilla flavour without being overly sweet or artificial.
Spoon the finished rice pudding into bowls or jars and top generously with fresh mango. The riper and juicier the mango, the better - it adds a fruity freshness that pairs beautifully with the light vanilla notes.
How to Enjoy It
This rice pudding is best served warm, straight from the pot - especially comforting on colder days. But it’s also delicious chilled. Simply transfer to storage jars and keep in the fridge for a few hours. That way, you’ll have a high-protein snack or grab-and-go breakfast ready whenever you need it.
With plant protein, rice and fresh fruit, this pudding is a great addition to your fitness routine – protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. And the best part? It’s quick to prepare and made with simple ingredients.
Final Thoughts
