Is Yogurt Keto?

The answer to this question is both yes and no. Most types of yogurts are not keto. So, you must be careful which brand you are using. You must stick to plain, lower-carb yogurts so that you don’t go overboard on your carb count for your keto diet since many regular yogurt brands have added sugar.

You can stick to a low carb yogurt brand such as Two Good Yogurt. They use a slow straining process that removes all the sugar from the yogurt, making it perfect for your keto diet. Furthermore, Two Good Yogurt has 80% less sugar than average Greek yogurts.

Also, let’s talk about some tips while choosing your keto yogurt. First off, it is better to keep it whole fat and natural. Another essential tip that you must keep in mind is that you should not get flavored yogurt, unless it’s an actual keto yogurt, like the Two Good brand. Even ‘naturally sweetened’ yogurt contains carbohydrates from fructose.

If you don’t have access to a brand that sells keto yogurt for this frozen yogurt recipe, you can also get plain full-fat Greek yogurt instead.

How to Make the Keto Popsicles Sweet?

When we say popsicles, the first word that comes to mind is sugar. But with a powdered monk fruit blend or erythritol, you can satisfy your sweet tooth too with these keto yogurt pops.

According to research, erythritol cannot be absorbed by our bodies. So, it makes the perfect zero carb substitute for sugar. It’s an easy way to sweeten up them keto yogurt popsciles!

Keto Chocolate Chips

Yes, if you do some research, you can find (and even make!) keto chocolate chips. Most regular milk chocolates are full of sugar and carbs.

So, if you want to keep this recipe keto, you cannot use regular chocolate chips. I like to use sugar free chocolate from ChocZero. The best thing about their chocolate is that it is sweetened with monk fruit. You can use my code KETOFOCUS to save 10% off your order.

If you can’t get ChocZero’s chocolate chips, you can also crush an unsweetened baker’s chocolate into small chocolate chips.

If you want to make your own keto chocolate chips at home, here’s a simple recipe. Mix in 4 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil, 1/3 cup of cacoa powder and stevia or erythritol. You can also use sugar free maple syrup instead of stevia. Pour the mixture into a container and freeze it until it is firm. Then, break it into small chip-sized pieces. Done!

Popsicle Molds

Popsicle molds make the perfect shape for your keto chocolate chip yogurt bars. You can add the mixture to a mold and place it in the freezer. All done!

But, what if you don’t have a popsicle mold… No worries! You don’t have to miss out on this amazing recipe!

You can use a Dixie cup instead. Place the mixture in the cup and freeze it for about an hour. Then, insert a wooden stick into it. This will help the stick stand straight in the cup.

You can also use the yogurt container for freezing your popsicles. If you want to make smaller popsicles, your ice cube tray can serve as a good mold also.

How to Make Keto Chocolate Chip Yogurt Bars?

This recipe is quite a simple one. It takes less than 5 minutes to prepare it. Mix, pour, cool, store! And you’re done! But mind you, you’ll have to wait for at least a day as the keto yogurt popsicles freeze before you can enjoy them.

If you want to add some flavor to the yogurt, you can add some cinnamon or vanilla too. It’s a delicious way to sweeten keto yogurt.

What Topping Should You Add?

The options for topping the keto yogurt bars are unlimited. If you are craving some extra chocolate flavor, pour on some melted chocolate for the topping. If you want to add a punch of healthy nutrients to your keto yogurt bars, chopped nuts are a great option. You can also add to your keto popsicles with strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.

If you want to get a little fancy, you can even throw in a few drops of vanilla extract with the yogurt. A bit of sugar free maple syrup in your keto yogurt bar can also add a delicious layer of sweetness to the snack.

Benefits of Keto Yogurt Bars

We know it’s delicious, we know it’s keto, but what are some other benefits of enjoying these keto yogurt bars?

First off, Greek yogurt is high in protein. So, it is great for your bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, etc. Furthermore, the yogurt in this recipe is packed with probiotics. Probiotics help to boost your immune system and decrease stomach issues. It also makes for the perfect source of vitamin B-12, calcium and other nutrients.

With all these benefits, these keto yogurt bars are the best source of nutrients for the entire family. The kids will love the popsicles and you can also enjoy them.
