Perfect for health-conscious dessert lovers, this recipe combines the velvety richness of low-fat Greek yogurt with the subtle sweetness of vanilla-flavored protein powder and pure vanilla extract. A touch of honey or maple syrup adds natural sweetness, while xanthan gum ensures a smooth, dreamy texture. Made effortlessly in just 10 minutes of prep time, you can use an ice cream maker for soft-serve perfection or a freezer-friendly method for convenience. Ideal for post-workout treats or refreshing summer desserts, this high-protein vanilla ice cream is both satisfying and nutritious. Serve up a scoop (or two!) and enjoy a wholesome dessert that fuels your body and satisfies your sweet tooth.
In a blender, combine the vanilla-flavored protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, low-fat Greek yogurt, pure vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup.
Blend the mixture on medium speed until smooth and fully combined.
Add the xanthan gum and a pinch of sea salt to the blender.
Blend again on high speed for 30-45 seconds to thicken the mixture slightly.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically around 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover it tightly, and freeze for 2-3 hours. During the freezing process, whisk or stir the mixture every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals and achieve a creamy texture.
Once the ice cream has reached your desired consistency, scoop into bowls and serve immediately, or transfer to an airtight container and store in the freezer for up to 1 week.
