Instructions
 

  • Add your ingredients into a blender or food processor.
  • Blend until smooth. You may have to stop to scrape down the sides with a spatula. Once blended, taste the mixture. If it's not sweet enough for your liking you can add in a splash of liquid sweetener.
  • Add any extras to the mixture, and then pour it into your moulds. Freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

Notes

Coconut Yoghurt Substitute: I recommend using Coconut Yoghurt as it doesn't contain a lot of water meaning your ice creams will be creamy instead of icy. You can, however, use Soy Yoghurt, Almond Yoghurt or Oat Yoghurt, but they tend to have a base of water. This makes it lower in calories, but your ice creams may be on the icier side. For the creamiest ice creams ever you can use coconut cream. If you don't need these to be dairy-free or vegan you can use Greek Yoghurt.

Variations

Take your protein ice cream bars to the next level:
  • Chocolate Peanut: Melt some chocolate (dark, milk or white!) and coat your ice cream once it has frozen to create a chocolate shell then sprinkle on some chopped peanuts.
  • Cookies and Cream: Use a vanilla protein powder and add some crushed cookies to your ice cream base before pouring it into moulds!
  • Strawberries and Cream: Use a vanilla protein powder and add in some chopped strawberries.
  • Bounty: Use a coconut protein powder, dip the ice creams into dark chocolate and sprinkle on some desiccated coconut.
