Ingredients
- 500 grams Full-fat Greek yoghurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol or preferred sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
Directions
Step 1
Start by placing the 500 grams of full-fat Greek yoghurt in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add 1 tablespoon of freshly grated lemon zest to the yoghurt. Ensure the zest is finely grated to evenly distribute the flavor.
Step 3
Squeeze fresh lemon to get 2 tablespoons of juice and add it to the mix. Stir gently to combine the yoghurt, zest, and juice.
Step 4
Measure 2 tablespoons of erythritol or your preferred low-carb sweetener and sprinkle it into the yoghurt mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure the sweetener dissolves completely.
Step 5
Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the mixture and stir well, allowing the vanilla to blend smoothly with the lemon flavor.
Step 6
Incorporate 1 tablespoon of chia seeds into the yoghurt. Mix thoroughly until the seeds are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Once all the ingredients are well combined, taste the yoghurt. Adjust the sweetener or lemon juice if needed, depending on personal preference.
Step 8
Transfer the lemon yoghurt into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the chia seeds to thicken the mixture slightly.
Step 9
Serve chilled as a refreshing snack or breakfast, optionally garnished with lemon wedges or additional zest.
