Ingredients
Plain coconut yogurt, thick: 1 1/2 cups (360 g)
Protein powder (vanilla or unflavored): 1/2 cup (50 to 60 g)
Maple syrup or honey: 2 to 3 Tbsp (30 to 45 ml)
Unsweetened shredded coconut: 1/4 cup (20 g)
Chia seeds or ground flax: 2 Tbsp (20 g)
Vanilla extract: 1 tsp (5 ml)
Fresh berries or diced mango (optional topping): 3/4 cup (110 g)
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, whisk coconut yogurt, protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth and thick.
2. Stir in shredded coconut and chia seeds until evenly mixed.
3. Divide mixture into 4 small jars or snack cups, about 1/2 cup (120 g) each.
4. Top with fruit if using.
5. Refrigerate 30 to 60 minutes, or until set and scoopable.
Notes
Protein powders vary a lot. If the mixture becomes too thick, whisk in 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) coconut milk or water until smooth.
For the firmest texture, chill overnight.
To keep fruit fresh, add toppings right before serving if prepping more than 2 days ahead.
Store covered in the refrigerator up to 4 days. Freeze without fruit toppings up to 1 month and thaw overnight in the fridge.
