A delicious, high-protein snack or crazy simple protein dessert. This baked yogurt is loaded with rich vanilla flavor wrapped into a warm, custard-like filling. The easiest way to amp up your protein and enjoy what you eat.
Baked yogurt isn’t for everyone. It definitely has a custard-like texture that not all will love. But as a Certified Nutrition Coach, not only do I adore the rich, refreshing taste but I love the protein hit it adds to my diet!
With 16 grams of protein in just one serving, I find you can make this baked yogurt for individual brunch servings or as an easy snack.
I’ve made it countless times and though the texture took me a bit to nail down, the result is a super light, comforting treat packed with refreshing berry flavor.

Ingredients You Need
You can peek the ingredients in the image below. Know that most baked yogurt recipes use traditional Greek yogurt. Being dairy-free, that wasn’t an option here (learn more about dairy-free for beginners).
If using a vegan yogurt try to find a “Greek” one (I like Riviera Greek Yogurt). This is because it thickens up the custard more. The regular dairy-free yogurts are a bit too thin and the texture isn’t the same, more “eggy”.
Expert Tips
You can top the baked yogurt with any kind of berries you like or enjoy it without. I drizzle mine with maple syrup after the fact but switch it up for what you’re craving that day.
The texture gets better if you let it sit for 5-7 minutes once out of the oven. It thickens upa s everything settles.
If you love a crisp top, broil the baked yogurt for 60 seconds at the end of the cooking cycle.
Make sure to whisk things together in the order they’re listed in the instructions. Collagen powder mixes well into yogurt but not amazingly into eggs. So, make sure to whisk it into the yogurt until blended prior to adding in that egg.
Easy to mix, this collagen powder adds a protein punch to anything you pair it with. Made from pasture-raised (grass-fed) cows there are no pesticides, hormones, or filler agents. Just put collagen protein. Use code mamabear10 to save money on your next order.
How To Make It
Step 1: Whisk together the yogurt, collagen powder, and maple syrup until smooth.
Step 2: Add in the egg and arrowroot powder and mix.
Step 3: Portion into small ramekins and top with berries (if using)
Step 4: Bake in the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before enjoying.
How To Store It
Baked yogurt tastes best fresh which is why I make ours in these individual serving ramekins. You can store it in the fridge once cooled in an airtight container or with plastic wrap on top of the ramekin.
It will stay fresh for 3-4 days. However, when you reheat it the texture changes and it won’t be as indulgent but almost chewy.
Personally, if I store the baked yogurt I prefer to snack on it cold from the fridge.
Toppings
You can make this high protein recipe as indulgent or simple as you wish. Below are a few delicious toppings to try out when you want to switch it up.
Fruity: You can top the baked yogurt with fruit or whisk berries into the yogurt itself. If you use a larger fruit make sure to chop it first so it’s bite sized.
Drizzle: Make this snack into dessert by drizzling it with a dairy-free chocolate ganache or caramel sauce.
Crunch: Top it with some chopped pecans or almonds if you love texture.
