Description

This Greek Yogurt Cookie Dough is a quick and healthy dessert option that comes together in just 10 minutes. Made with simple ingredients including Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and almond flour, it is naturally sweetened, egg-free, and packed with 8 grams of protein per serving. Perfect for a guilt-free treat or a nutritious snack.

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (2% fat)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (33 grams)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups almond flour

Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and vanilla whey protein powder. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  2. Add Almond Flour: Gradually add the almond flour to the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula. Continue mixing until you achieve a cookie dough consistency. Because the thickness of Greek yogurt can vary, you may adjust the texture by adding a little more almond flour for thickness or a splash of milk for creaminess if needed.
  3. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Stir in the chocolate chips gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Serve: Enjoy your cookie dough immediately as a healthy dessert or snack. You can also refrigerate it briefly if you prefer a firmer texture.

Notes

  • This recipe is egg-free making it safer for eating raw.
  • Use 2% Greek yogurt for the best texture, but you can substitute with non-fat or whole milk Greek yogurt.
  • Adjust the almond flour amount based on the thickness of your yogurt for the perfect consistency.
  • Can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days in an airtight container.
  • Add a splash of milk if the dough is too thick or dry.
  • Use dairy-free protein powder and chocolate chips to make it vegan-friendly.
