About this recipe
Milkshakes are very indulgent and delicious. Sometimes, I crave the taste of a milkshake but want a lighter variation that doesn’t use ice cream. This healthy milkshake uses frozen yogurt and is still creamy and satisfying. It’s very customizable and you can use your favorite fruit or flavors to make it.
Ingredients
For this delicious and easy milkshake recipe you need the following ingredients:
- Frozen yogurt: My favorite to use is the vanilla flavor since you can make different flavors of milkshake with it.
- Milk: You can use 1% or fat-free milk for this recipe. Nut milks such as almond or cashew milk work too.
- Flavors: I used nectarines, but you can use any other fruit such as bananas, mangos or strawberries.
Pro tip: Place the serving glasses in the freezer for 10 to 20 minutes before serving the milkshake. Cold glasses will keep the milkshakes cold for longer.
Variations
You can add protein powder to you milkshake to make it even healthier. For this particular recipe, add vanilla flavored protein powder.
Other ways to jazz up this milkshake is to use other fruits such as strawberries or bananas. If craving a healthy chocolate milkshake, use chocolate frozen yogurt and leave out any fruit and add a tablespoon of peanut butter if you like.
Frequently asked questions
