Description

Make this quick and creamy whipped Greek yogurt for a light, indulgent dessert in just 5 minutes. Perfect for topping fruit, serving with graham crackers, or enjoying on its own!


Ingredients

1 cup (240g) whole-fat or 2% plain Greek yogurt (such as Fage)

¼ cup (60g) cold heavy cream or whipping cream

2 tablespoons (30g) maple syrup

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt (optional, but it enhances the flavor)


Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

  • Add Greek yogurt, cold heavy cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt (if using) into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or use a hand mixer if you don’t have a stand mixer.

Step 2: Start Mixing

  • Begin mixing on low speed for about 20 seconds, just until the cream incorporates with the yogurt. Gradually increase the speed to high.

Step 3: Whisk to Perfection

  • Whisk on high speed for about 2 minutes. The mixture will become thicker and creamier. Once the initial mixing is done, reduce the speed and turn off the mixer. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides and mix again, ensuring everything is incorporated.

Step 4: Finish Whisking

  • Continue whisking for an additional 2-3 minutes until soft peaks form. The peaks should stand up when the whisk is removed but will not be stiff, resembling whipped cream.

Step 5: Ready to Serve

  • Transfer the whipped Greek yogurt to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days. It will thicken slightly as it chills, but it’s so delicious it rarely lasts that long!

Notes

  • With Fresh Fruit:
  • Top with berries, sliced bananas, or a drizzle of honey for added sweetness.
  • Graham Crackers or Biscotti:
  • Pair with graham crackers for a delightful treat, or serve alongside crunchy biscotti for extra texture.
  • As a Standalone Snack:
  • Enjoy it plain, or sprinkle with cinnamon or cocoa powder for a twist.
