Description

Creamy, no bake High Protein Coconut Yogurt Snack Cups made with thick coconut yogurt, protein powder, chia, and coconut. Meal prep friendly, dairy free, and ready after a quick chill.


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.
