Refreshing Berry Protein Sorbet - featured image

A quick, easy, and wholesome frozen treat blending mixed berries with vanilla protein powder for a refreshing and protein-packed sorbet perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (450g) frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/2 cup (about 45g) vanilla protein powder (whey-based recommended)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Measure out 3 cups (450g) of frozen mixed berries, 1/2 cup (45g) vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup (120ml) almond milk, 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and optional 1 tablespoon chia seeds.
  2. Add the frozen berries and almond milk to your blender first. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until the berries start to break down and mixture looks slushy.
  3. Add the vanilla protein powder, honey, and lemon juice. Blend again for another 45 seconds or until completely smooth. If the mixture feels too thick, add a splash more almond milk but keep it firm enough to hold texture.
  4. Add chia seeds now and pulse a few times to mix if using.
  5. Taste your sorbet. If it’s too tart, add a bit more honey or maple syrup and pulse again. If it’s too thin, pop it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up before serving.
  6. Serve immediately or freeze leftovers in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 days. Let thaw a few minutes before scooping.

Notes

If blender struggles with frozen fruit, let berries soften at room temperature for 5-7 minutes before blending. Pulse in short bursts to avoid overheating. Adjust sweetness carefully as protein powder adds sweetness. Freeze briefly if sorbet is too soft before serving. Use high-quality frozen berries for best flavor.
