Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix together the vanilla Greek yogurt, almond flour, protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  2. Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the yogurt mixture to evenly distribute them without breaking.
  3. Portion into Cups: Spoon the mixture into cupcake liners or small cups to form individual servings.
  4. Freeze: Place the filled cups in the freezer and freeze for 1 to 2 hours until the mixture is firm and holds its shape.
  5. Serve: Remove from the freezer and serve straight away as a refreshing and protein-rich frozen snack.

Notes

  • Use vanilla-flavored protein powder for extra flavor or opt for unflavored if preferred.
  • Almond flour helps achieve the cookie dough texture while keeping it gluten-free.
  • You can substitute mini chocolate chips with chopped nuts or dried fruit as desired.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
  • Allow cups to sit for 5 minutes at room temperature before serving if they are too firm.
