Ingredients

Scale

Protein Frosting Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat or 2% for creaminess)
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or flavor of choice)
  • 2–3 tablespoons sweetener (such as honey, maple syrup, or a low-calorie sweetener to taste)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, protein powder, and sweetener of your choice.
  2. Whip the Mixture: Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the ingredients together until the frosting is smooth, creamy, and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes of continuous whipping.
  3. Adjust Consistency and Sweetness: Taste the frosting and add more sweetener if desired. If the frosting is too thick, you can thin it out by adding a teaspoon of milk or water and mixing again.
  4. Chill and Serve: For the best texture, refrigerate the frosting for at least 30 minutes before serving. Use it as a topping for cakes, cupcakes, or enjoy as a high-protein dip.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt that is thick and strained for the best frosting texture.
  • Choose a protein powder flavor that complements your dessert, such as vanilla, chocolate, or unflavored.
  • Adjust the amount of sweetener based on your dietary preferences and the sweetness of your protein powder.
  • If you prefer a dairy-free version, use plant-based yogurt and protein powder.
  • Keep the frosting refrigerated and consume within 3-4 days for freshness.
