Print Recipe

A quick, creamy, and protein-packed frozen yogurt dessert with berries, perfect for weight loss and healthy snacking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Measure out 2 cups (about 16 fl oz) of plain Greek yogurt, 1 cup (about 5.3 oz) frozen mixed berries, 1 scoop (about 30 g) vanilla protein powder, 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup if using, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon chia seeds if desired.
  2. In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the Greek yogurt, frozen berries, protein powder, honey or maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy. Add a tablespoon of water or almond milk if mixture is too thick.
  3. Taste the mixture and add more honey or syrup if desired, blending briefly again.
  4. If using chia seeds, transfer the mixture to a bowl and gently fold in 1 tablespoon of chia seeds. Let sit for 5 minutes to allow seeds to swell.
  5. Serve immediately for a soft-serve style frozen yogurt, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to maintain creaminess.
  6. Scoop into bowls or glasses and optionally top with fresh berries or a drizzle of honey. Makes about 3-4 servings.

Notes

Let berries sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if too frozen to blend easily. Scrape down blender sides halfway through blending for smooth texture. Use vanilla-flavored protein powder for best taste and texture. Stir frozen yogurt every 30 minutes if freezing to prevent ice crystals. Chia seeds add fiber and texture but don’t add too much to avoid gelatinous texture.
