High Protein Frozen Yogurt
Description
The High Protein Frozen Yogurt recipe combines coconut yogurt with vegan protein powder and a pinch of cinnamon and salt to create a flavorful base. Frozen mango and raspberries are blended in, contributing natural sweetness and fruit texture. The mixture is processed until smooth and thick, resulting in a frozen dessert that is creamy and dense rather than icy.
This frozen yogurt offers a balance of tang from the yogurt, spice from cinnamon, and bright fruit flavors. Serving it immediately yields a thick, scoopable texture, while placing it in the freezer for about 15 minutes can firm it up further. This preparation requires only frozen fruit to achieve the right consistency and flavor.
Using different protein powders may affect texture; pea protein absorbs more liquid, while whey or rice protein powders can also be used. Greek yogurt can substitute for coconut yogurt, but may need a small amount of almond milk to blend smoothly without becoming a smoothie. Leftovers can be frozen for a few weeks but may develop crystals; thaw slightly and reblend to restore creaminess before serving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut yogurt
- ¼ cup vegan protein powder vanilla
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch salt
- 1 cup Mango frozen
- 1 cup raspberries frozen
Instructions

- Add the rest of the ingredients. Blend.

Notes
- Use only frozen fruit to maintain the thick, creamy texture of the frozen yogurt.
- Adjust protein powder type carefully, as different powders absorb liquids differently and affect consistency.
- For Greek yogurt substitution, add no more than a tablespoon of almond milk to assist blending without thinning.
- Store extra portions in the freezer up to a few weeks; reblend after thawing to restore smoothness.
