How to Make Yogurt Frosting

You can make a healthy, high-protein frosting for cakes, cupcakes, pancakes, and waffles with just three simple ingredients: almond protein powder, sweetener, and plain yogurt. Greek-style yogurt works best since it’s thicker, creating a creamier texture.

For a more stable frosting that holds its shape on cakes and cupcakes, add ⅛ tsp of xanthan gum. If you’re using plain yogurt, a splash of vanilla extract enhances the flavor.

If your yogurt or protein powder is already sweetened or flavored, you can skip the additional sweetener. We’re using plain versions of both, so we add our own.

This frosting is low-fat, low-carb, and high in protein - so delicious you might want to eat it by the spoonful. And the best part? You can enjoy it every day!

Ingredients

• 400 ml ~ 13 oz plain yogurt, Greek-Style
• 60 g ~ ¼ cup almond protein powder
• 40 ml ~ 2 tbsp maple or agave syrup
• ¼ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
• ⅛ tsp xanthan gum (optional, but recommended)

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients to a small mixing bowl then whisk until smooth and stiff. You now have delicious healthy frosting. It’ll keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
