Low Carb Chocolate Yogurt

This is so incredibly simple, I’m not even sure it warrants being called a recipe tbh but it’s something I experimented with when I fancied a sweet yet wholesome treat that was low sugar/ low carb.

This chocolate yogurt is low GI too meaning my blood sugar is kept stable which helps with weightloss/management.

I’ve also been known to eat this for breakfast!

Without further ado, enter stage left this complete babe of a chocolate yogurt.

A three ingredient taste sensation, I’ve been making up big batches for a quick breakfasts and I love this as a dessert after dinner.

I saw a recipe the other day on FB where protein powder is added to the yogurt too for an additional muscle building whammy so do consider adding some too perhaps after a work-out.

This really is the most simply delicious treat imaginable and you can use coconut yogurt and maple syrup for a vegan option if you prefer, and you can top with fruit of your choice too (ideally berries to keep it low carb). My fave is with chocolate shavings! I did pop a raspberry on top at least, on some of them!

I’d run out of dark chocolate so ended up using Green & Blacks milk chocolate here which isn’t really a low carb option. I only ended up eating a tiny bit though and didn’t get a sugar crash dip as I would if I’d eaten lots.

After rustling these up in literally minutes, my husband took the prettiest pictures ever. Swoon. Yogurt has never looked so good, huh!

Ingredients:

(serves 4)
