Description
A delightful combination of creamy yogurt, fresh berries, and rich chocolate, perfect for a healthy snack or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups chopped strawberries and/or raspberries
- 1 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt (224g)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Dash of cinnamon
- ½ scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
- 1¼ cup chocolate chips (220g)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Start by washing your strawberries—or whatever berries you’re using—under cold water. Pat them dry and chop them up into bite-sized pieces.
- Mix the Yogurt Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a dash of cinnamon. Give it a good stir until everything is well blended. If you’re adding protein powder, toss it in at this stage!
- Fold in the Berries: Gently fold in your freshly chopped strawberries/raspberries into the yogurt mixture. Make sure the berries are evenly distributed.
- Chill the Mixture: Pop the yogurt and berry mixture into the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, add your chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until melted and smooth.
- Assemble the Clusters: Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt and berry mix onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle with Chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the yogurt clusters.
- Freeze the Clusters: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the clusters freeze for at least 1-2 hours.
- Enjoy: Once frozen, store your clusters in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
Feel free to substitute berries or add nuts for a different flavor. These clusters can last up to a month in the freezer!
