Ingredients

• 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 3 tablespoons honey (or a non-caloric sweetener of choice)
• 2 large egg whites
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon gelatin powder
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the gelatin powder with 2 tablespoons of water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.

Step 2

While the gelatin is blooming, in a medium bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Warm the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for 10 seconds or until it is fully dissolved. Let it cool for about 1 minute, then slowly whisk it into the yogurt mixture.

Step 4

In a clean, dry mixing bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This will give the mousse its light and airy texture.

Step 5

Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yogurt mixture, one-third at a time, being careful not to deflate the air in the egg whites. Continue folding until fully combined and no streaks remain.

Step 6

Spoon the mousse evenly into 4 individual dessert cups or ramekins. Smooth out the tops with the back of a spoon if needed.

Step 7

Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mousse is set and chilled.

Step 8

Serve cold, optionally garnished with a sprinkle of lemon zest or a fresh mint leaf for decoration.
