Low Carb Chocolate Yogurt

This is so incredibly simple, I’m not even sure it warrants being called a recipe, but it’s something I experimented with when I fancied a sweet yet wholesome treat that was low sugar/ low carb. I’ve since become vegan so need to create a vegan version to this. My husband loves it.

This chocolate yogurt is low GI too meaning my blood sugar is kept stable along with my weight.

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 breakfast 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 hit so do consider adding some too.

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. I went for the less healthy, chocolate shavings option here! I did pop a raspberry on top at least on some of them!

I had 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!
