Almond Butter Cherry Frozen Yogurt Bites
Recipe makes 12 servings
Macros per serving:
191 cals – 11g fat – 16g carbs – 7g protein
Ingredients:
2 cups plain vegan yogurt
2 scoops/servings vanilla protein
2 tbsp almond butter
1 cup chopped pitted cherries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions:
To a mixing bowl add: yogurt and vanilla protein. Whip together so it’s nice and smooth.
Add in almond butter and chopped cherries, and fold through a few times. (Personally I prefer it not mixed totally through so you get bites of almond butter.)
Lay a parchment paper across a baking tray or large flat plate that fits into the freezer.
Spoon out 12 yogurt mounds onto the prepared parchment sheet.
Set the yogurt mounds into the freezer until firm, at least 1-2 hours.
Melt the chocolate and oil together over a double broiler or in the microwave on low heat, stirring constantly.
Dunk each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate and use a fork to remove it from the chocolate bowl so the extra chocolate can easily drip off and through.
Set it back on the parchment paper and if desired top with coarse sea salt.
Repeat with all 12 yogurt bites.
Set in the freezer for 10 minutes or until chocolate has set.
Once the frozen yogurt bites are set you can place them in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to eat.
Keep in mind, for best results you’ll need to remove each serving from the freezer at least 20 minutes before consuming so it has time to soften.
