A quick and easy homemade protein ice cream made with just three simple ingredients: protein powder, full-fat Greek yogurt, and almond milk. This creamy treat is perfect for post-workout recovery or a guilt-free dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) smooth, unflavored or vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 cup (240g) full-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup (120ml) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • Optional add-ins: pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup, splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Measure your ingredients precisely: 1 cup (90g) protein powder, 1 cup (240g) full-fat Greek yogurt, and ½ cup (120ml) almond milk.
  2. Combine the protein powder and Greek yogurt in a mixing bowl. Stir gently to avoid powder dust.
  3. Slowly add the almond milk while whisking continuously until you get a smooth, thick but pourable batter. Add a splash more almond milk if too thick, but do not make it runny.
  4. Add optional flavorings such as cinnamon, honey, or vanilla extract if desired.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and smooth out the surface with a spatula to prevent ice crystals.
  6. Freeze for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight. For a softer texture, stir every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours to break up ice crystals (optional).
  7. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly for easy scooping.

Notes

Whisk thoroughly to avoid lumps and gritty texture. Use full-fat Greek yogurt for best creaminess. Stirring during freezing helps prevent ice crystals but is optional. Use smooth whey protein powder for best results. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to one week. Let ice cream soften for 5 minutes before serving.
