A healthy breakfast, snack, or dessert, this high protein yogurt bowl tastes decadent while packing nutrition! An ultra creamy yogurt base is topped with a toasted coconut and almond butter layer & a dark chocolate magic shell. You only need a few ingredients and 5 minutes to make a healthy yogurt bowl packed with protein & healthy fats to keep you satiated and energized!
Ingredients
Yogurt
- 3/4 cup thick greek yogurt or coconut yogurt or 1 individual container of yogurt
- 1/2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (if your yogurt isn't vanilla)
Almond coconut layer
- 1 tbsp runny almond butter
- 1/2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 2 tbsp toasted coconut or shredded coconut
Melted chocolate
- 2 tbsp chocolate chips, of choice
- 1 tsp coconut oil *optional, but helps make the chocolate a little runnier/easier to melt & spread!
Instructions
- Add yogurt to the bottom of your bowl. If adding protein powder to the yogurt, stir that in. Also stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another small bowl, combine the nut butter, sweetener, and toasted coconut. You can also add in some chopped almonds for more crunch. Spread this layer over the yogurt.
- In that same small bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together. I like to microwave mine for 20 second increments, stirring well between each, until fully melted and smooth. Then pour this over the nut butter layer, spreading it out.
- Place the yogurt cup in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, until the chocolate has hardened. You can also keep these in the fridge (with a lid on) for longer storage. Enjoy!

Notes
