We all know the feeling when you’ve had a lovely dinner, but you would love something sweet after, that won’t make you feel guilty. I’ve created my go-to greek yoghurt ‘desserts’ for when the sweet cravings are real! Also, they taste pretty similar to the actual desserts I’ve based the recipes off of, without all the sugar and saturated fat. If you are a vegan you can easily substitute the greek yoghurt for a vegan alternative such as Alpro. I have tried this myself, and the recipes still taste just as good. Let’s get into the desserty goodness…
1) Apple Crumble
If you love your traditional British desserts, then this is the one for you. I’ve added Myprotein toffee flavdrops which sweeten’s it up and adds something extra to this dessert. Also by using granola, it replaces the crumble without adding all the fat and sugar that would usually go into the traditional dessert.
Ingredients:
- x1 apple, sliced (I used Gala apples)
- Greek yoghurt
- Toffee flavdrops (available from Bulkpowders or Myprotein)
- Granola (Preferably reduced sugar)
- A drizzle of honey
- Chia seeds (optional)
2) Strawberry shortcake
SO good! The combinations of the crunchy shortcake biscuits and the fresh strawberries makes this taste so dreamy. To sweeten it, I drizzled some honey over and sprinkled some chia seeds to add in some healthy fats and omegas.
Ingredients:
- x1 crumbled shortbread biscuit
- Strawberries
- A drizzle of honey
- Greek yoghurt
- Chia seeds
3) Banoffee pie
This one looks a lot unhealthier than what it actually is, as it uses sugar-free digestive biscuits (from a brand called Siro, which I purchased from Sainsbury’s ) and a grating of dark chocolate.
Ingredients:
- Dark chocolate chips or grated dark chocolate
- Toffee ‘flavdrops’ (Myprotein)
- 1/2 a banana, sliced
- x1 digestive biscuit, crumbled
- Greek yoghurt
4) Eton Mess
Saving the naughtiest one until last! This pretty much is the real thing except without the cream, making this one somewhat healthier without compromising the flavour. Also, this is definitely my favourite one of the bunch as Eton Mess is one of my favourite summer desserts. I found some tiny coconut meringues in M&S that make this taste so good.
Ingredients:
- Mini meringues, whole or crumbled
- Strawberries
- Chia seeds
- Greek yoghurt
- Honey (optional)
I hope you try a few of these out as they are so delicious! Thank you for reading,
