Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl with almond milk yogurt, chocolate protein powder, and nut butter topped with fresh strawberries and granola.
If you’ve been around here a while you know that I’m a morning person.
If I could, I would do *everything* in the morning, but since that’s not possible… I always put myself first.
Lately, that means setting aside time to drink my coffee, meditate, gratitude journaling, setting a schedule for the day, and working out.
It’s really important to me that I have time for myself before the craziness begins.
Something else I’m doing to support myself is making sure that I get enough protein to start the day.
If you’re tired of protein shakes and don’t have time to make protein oats or a tofu scramble, how about a yogurt bowl?
This Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl is so satisfying, customizable, and perfect for any season and lifestyle.
It’s made in less than 5 minutes with almond milk yogurt, chocolate protein powder, and nut butter topped with fresh strawberries and granola.
How to Make a 5 Min Protein Yogurt Bowl
I was today years old when I discovered how easy it is to mix protein powder with yogurt to make a protein-packed breakfast bowl.
Vegan yogurt has come a long way over the years, but it doesn’t always have a high protein content.
Luckily, we can change that by adding it ourselves.
The addition of nut butter makes it super rich and smooth, and toppings are the cherry on top!
Friends, don’t make the same mistake as I did.
I don’t want you to live a day longer without trying this delicious breakfast situation, so here’s my variation.
What You Need to Make a Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl
Here’s what you need to make a Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl:
- chocolate protein powder
- unsweetened almond milk yogurt
- unsweetened almond milk
- nut butter (peanut butter or almond butter)
That’s it!
How to Make a Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl
This recipe is *so* easy to mix up that I’m truly kicking myself for not trying it sooner.
First, grab a bowl, because that’s all you need for mixing and serving!
Basically, you can add all of the yogurt ingredients to the bowl and mix them together.
But there is a bit of an art to it, so listen up!
Add the protein powder to a small serving bowl *then* add in the yogurt, almond milk, and nut butter on top.
If you add the wet ingredients first, it’ll be OK.
However, I recommend adding the protein powder first and then the wet ingredients after.
This way, the protein powder is a little better contained and won’t spill everywhere while you’re mixing!
Mix everything together with a small spoon or spatula until it’s well-combined and creamy.
You want the mixture to be smooth without any protein powder clumps.
The consistency will depend on the brand of yogurt, protein powder, and nut butter that you use.
Adjustments to Make This Bowl Yours
If your yogurt bowl is too runny, add a bit more protein powder.
If it’s too thick, add a splash or two more almond milk.
The final consistency should be fluffy and thick; kind of like pudding.
Add Your Favorite Toppings
Now that your chocolate yogurt protein base is mixed, let’s add some toppings.
Anything goes here, but let me tell you my favorites.
I love adding fresh sliced strawberries, Bob’s Red Mill Cranberry Almond Homestyle Granola, dark chocolate chips, and a drizzle of peanut butter.
About Bob’s Red Mill Granola
This granola is such a nice addition to this yogurt bowl for some crunch and sweetness.
Bob’s Red Mill Cranberry Almond Homestyle Granola is made with whole grain oats, real maple syrup, coconut, cranberries, almonds and seeds.
I love this granola because it’s certified gluten-free and each serving has 7 grams of sugar or less per serving.
It tastes homemade because it’s pan-baked and perfectly crispy and crunchy.
Don’t let your yogurt bowls go without it!
How to Serve Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl
Enjoy this Chocolate Protein Yogurt Bowl as quick breakfast that you can whip up in less than 5 minutes.
It’s my new go-to breakfast recipe when I’m short on time and high on hunger!
I love that it doesn’t require a blender, baking, pan, or even a microwave.
And it’s packed with protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs to energize you for the day ahead.
You can customize it to create different flavors, too!
