# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
½ cup plain or vanilla almond milk (unsweetened)
02 -
3 cups plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened)
03 -
⅔ cup maple syrup
04 -
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
05 -
A pinch of sea salt
06 -
1 cup cacao powder
→ Optional Toppings
07 -
Toasted coconut flakes
08 -
Granola
09 -
Chocolate chips
10 -
Peanut butter drizzle
11 -
Fresh berries
# Steps:
01 -
Add the yogurt, cacao powder, almond milk, vanilla, maple syrup, and salt into a blender. Mix until the texture is completely even.
02 -
Transfer the blended mix to an ice cream machine and churn it following the machine's directions. It typically takes 15 minutes for soft-serve texture.
03 -
If you prefer soft-serve, scoop and serve into bowls immediately after churning.
04 -
Want a firmer texture? Pour the mixture into a lined pan or a sealable container, cover it snugly, and let it freeze for at least 30 minutes.
05 -
Take it out of the freezer a little before serving so it softens up and becomes creamier.
06 -
Sprinkle on toppings like berries, granola, or chocolate chips before enjoying.
# Notes:
01 -
For a creamier result, go with full-fat or 2% yogurt over fat-free options.
02 -
Don’t rush the blending! Make sure that cacao powder fully mixes to avoid any grainy bits in the final dessert.
03 -
No ice cream maker? Pour the mix into a container and stir it every couple of hours as it freezes to mimic churning.
04 -
Let it warm up briefly at room temperature before scooping—it’ll make it much easier to serve.
05 -
Switch it up with mix-ins like broken cookie chunks, chopped nuts, or a swirl of melted chocolate.
