Healthy frozen yogurt

Step 1

The night before you want to make the ice cream (or early morning), place the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer.

Step 2

When you're ready to make the ice cream and your bowl is frozen, combine all of the ice cream ingredients in a blender. Blend a minute or so until completely smooth.

Step 3

Turn your ice cream maker on according to it's instructions. Pour the ice cream mixture into the machine and let it work it's magic! Mine takes awhile to get thick and creamy (about 25-30 mins).

Step 4

While the ice cream maker is running, make the cookie dough.

Step 5

Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl until cookie dough forms. I use plant-based protein, so if you use whey or another kind, the texture of your dough may be different. If it's too wet, add a few tbsp more almond flour or an extra tbsp or two of protein. If it's too dry, add a little extra maple syrup or a splash of milk.

Step 6

Roll the dough into small balls (you can also leave it in crumbles and add it to the ice cream maker while it's spinning your ice cream). I like to throw half the balls into the ice cream maker and save some for topping!

Step 7

Once the ice cream maker is done and it's thick to your liking, turn it off. Serve straight away with some extra cookie dough on top and store the rest in an air-tight container in the freezer (I linked my favorite reusable ice cream containers in the blog post!).

Step 8

When eating leftovers, let the ice cream thaw for 30 minutes before scooping and enjoying for the best texture.

Step 9

After blending all of the ingredients together, instead of pouring into the ice cream maker, you'll pour the mixture into a glass container with a lid (or saranwrap). You can stir in the ice cream chunks or store them in the fridge until you're ready to eat and just sprinkle them on top later.

Step 10

Place the container in the freezer and stir every 30 minutes until it starts to get thick (I like to stir it every 30 mins for the first 2ish hours). It won't turn out as great as the ice cream maker but will still taste delicous!
