Ingredients

  • 12 Medjool dates, pitted
  • 120 g plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped almonds

Instructions

  1. Slice each date lengthwise on one side and remove the pits if not already pitted. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, protein powder, honey, almond butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and thick.

Notes

  • Use coconut yogurt and plant-based protein for a dairy-free version.
  • Top with crushed pistachios, shredded coconut, or chia seeds for variation.
  • Thicker yogurt yields better filling consistency—adjust protein powder as needed.
  • Best served chilled but can be eaten immediately.
  • Perfect for meal prep and snacking on-the-go.
