Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cottage cheese I used 1%, but the higher the fat content the creamier it will be.
  • 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder I used Good Protein brand.
  • 2 tablespoons monkfruit/allulose blend I used Wholesome Yum but you can also use monkfruit/erythritol, maple syrup, or honey. If you like it sweeter, add more.
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract I did a splash, about half a teaspoon
  • 1/8-1/4 teaspoon lemon zest Start low and add as you go. A fluffy 1/4 teaspoon was perfect for me. Anymore and it could be too bitter.
  • 1/2 cup raspberries I used fresh for blending and topped with frozen

Optional toppings

  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries
  • 1 tablespoons shredded coconut
  • lemon wedge
  • chia seeds
  • hemp seeds
  • sliced almonds

Notes

Each protein powder brand will affect the taste. You can omit any additional protein powder if desired.
    • Swap vanilla protein powder for another flavor. Sugar cookie is good but if you can find a cheesecake flavor, then you hit the jackpot. Other flavors to experiment with: chocolate, unflavored, pumpkin spice.
    • Top with melted white chocolate for a little extra sweetness (I'm totally doing this next time).
    • Add a drizzle of almond butter for healthy fats.
    • Drizzle honey over for a little extra sweetness.
    • Mix in some chia seeds for added fiber.
    • Sprinkle some granola for extra texture and crunch.
    • Adjust the sweetness to taste by adding more or less monk fruit/allulose or use honey or maple syrup.
    • Want an even creamier texture? Use a full-fat cottage cheese.
