Meet Whipped Yogurt! It’s a more indulgent form of yogurt, yet a slightly healthier alternative to regular whipped cream. It’s billow soft, luxuriously creamy and there are endless ways to serve it!
If you’ve wondered before “can I make whipped cream out of Greek yogurt?” The answer is yes and no. Greek yogurt alone won’t whip up into anything light and aerated like traditional whipped cream, but however if you add a fair amount of heavy cream to then it will whip up quite well.
It won’t end up exactly as stiff and stable as traditional whipped cream but a cross between the stabilization of whipped cream and the yogurt (basically with a medium set stiffness). If you did want to stabilize it further a bit of properly dissolved gelatin ought to do the trick (just note the texture will be different of course).
The texture ends up amazingly silky smooth, richly creamy, and melt-in-your-mouth satisfying with every bite.
What to Serve with Whipped Yogurt
Wondering what to pair it with?
- I recommend serving it with fresh fruit and granola or nuts. This basically creates an indulgent parfait, something to serve for a fancy brunch or dessert.
- You can also dollop it atop breakfast foods like oat crepes, pancakes, or French toast.
- Try it with cooked fruit like cinnamon sugar sauteed apples.
- Or serve it as a fruit dip. Yum!
How to Make Whipped Yogurt
Making this delicious treat couldn’t be easier. Simply pour all the ingredients, including yogurt, cream, honey and vanilla bean paste (or vanilla) into a bowl).
Whip it with an electric mixer until it’s fluffy and medium stiff peaks form.
Storing Whipped Greek Yogurt
It will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for about 3 days. Just note that it will soften up some as it sits.
Got Chocolate Cravings?
Make Chocolate Whipped Yogurt! To do so simply add 3 Tbsp Dutch process cocoa powder into the mixture with everything else along with an additional 2 Tbsp honey (or sweeten with added powdered sugar).
This option is richly delicious with a nice light tang, and it seems quite similar to a chocolate mousse (especially after it’s rested in the fridge a few hours). It’s an easier, faster alternative.
