In a medium saucepan, whisk together the low-fat milk and cornstarch until the cornstarch is completely dissolved.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and continuously stir the mixture.
As the mixture begins to warm, add in the vanilla protein powder and continue to stir until well incorporated.
Add the sweetener and a pinch of salt, stirring constantly.
Continue to cook the mixture for about 10-12 minutes, or until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Be sure not to let it boil.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Allow the pudding to cool slightly, then fold in the Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy.
Divide the pudding evenly into serving dishes or bowls.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set fully.
Serve chilled, optionally garnished with fresh berries or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
