Chocolate Chip Greek Yogurt (Print Version)
A creamy, protein-packed treat combining Greek yogurt, chocolate chips, and almond flour.
# Recipe Ingredients:
→ Base
01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or low-fat
02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
03 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 - 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
05 - 1/8 teaspoon salt
→ Dry Ingredients
06 - 1 cup almond flour or heat-treated all-purpose flour
07 - 1/4 cup oat flour or additional almond flour
→ Add-ins
08 - 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
# Directions:
01 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, softened butter, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and salt. Mix until smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
02 - Stir in almond flour and oat flour until a thick, dough-like consistency forms. The mixture should hold together when pressed but remain soft and pliable.
03 - Fold in mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough, ensuring every bite contains chocolate.
04 - Taste the dough and adjust sweetness with additional brown sugar or salt as desired to suit your preference.
05 - Serve immediately for a softer texture, or refrigerate for 15-30 minutes for a firmer, more traditional cookie dough consistency.
