High Protein Vegan Chocolate Recipes — 5 Easy Ideas
If you think eating high protein and eating chocolate are mutually exclusive, think again. These five recipes use real cacao — not artificial chocolate flavouring — to deliver genuine chocolate satisfaction alongside serious plant protein. All are vegan, all are Low FODMAP friendly and all take under 15 minutes to make.
The secret ingredient in every one is That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao — organic brown rice protein and organic raw cacao, nothing else. It's what makes these recipes genuinely good for your gut rather than just good on paper.
Recipe 1 — The Two Ingredient Chocolate Protein Shake
This is the simplest thing you'll ever make and one of the most satisfying.
Blend one serving of That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao with 300ml of cold almond milk. That's it. The raw cacao gives you deep, rich chocolate flavour. The brown rice protein gives you 20g of clean plant protein. No sweeteners needed — the cacao is naturally complex and rounded.
For a thicker shake add a small frozen unripe banana. For extra richness add a teaspoon of almond butter.
Recipe 2 — Chocolate Cacao Overnight Oats
Add one serving of That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao to 60g of oats. Pour over 200ml of almond milk. Stir well. Add a teaspoon of maple syrup if you'd like it slightly sweeter. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
In the morning top with a small handful of blueberries and a sprinkle of cacao nibs. You have a high protein, Low FODMAP, genuinely chocolatey breakfast waiting for you before you've even thought about the day ahead.
Recipe 3 — No Bake Chocolate Protein Balls
Mix together one serving of That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao, 100g of oats, 3 tablespoons of peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and a splash of almond milk to bind. Roll into 12 balls and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Each ball delivers approximately 5g of protein from clean plant sources with no artificial ingredients of any kind. Make a batch on Sunday and you have snacks for the week.
Recipe 4 — Chocolate Protein Porridge
Cook 60g of oats in 300ml of almond milk over a medium heat, stirring regularly. Once thick and creamy, remove from the heat and stir through one serving of That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao. The residual heat activates the cacao and turns the porridge a deep, rich chocolate colour.
Top with cacao nibs, a drizzle of maple syrup and a small handful of raspberries. Serve immediately.
Recipe 5 — Chocolate Protein Smoothie Bowl
Blend one serving of That Protein Blissful Raw Cacao with one small frozen unripe banana, 100ml of almond milk and a handful of ice until thick. Pour into a bowl — it should be thick enough to hold toppings without sinking.
Top with granola, cacao nibs, sliced strawberries and a drizzle of almond butter. Eat immediately.
