Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup vanilla whey protein powder
- ½ Tbsp maple syrup, optional
- 2 Tbsp rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Mix yogurt and vanilla extract: In a small bowl, combine the non-fat plain Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. Stir them together until evenly blended, providing a lightly flavored base for your dip.
- Add protein powder: Incorporate the vanilla whey protein powder into the yogurt mixture. Stir vigorously until the dip is completely smooth with no lumps remaining, ensuring a creamy consistency.
- Sweeten to taste: Taste your protein dunkaroo dip. If it isn’t sweet enough, mix in the optional maple syrup to your preferred sweetness level. This step is optional as many protein powders add sufficient sweetness on their own.
- Fold in sprinkles: Gently stir in the rainbow sprinkles, reserving some for garnish if desired. The sprinkles add a fun, nostalgic element to the dip.
- Serve: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Top with additional rainbow sprinkles if you like, and serve immediately with your favorite dippables such as fruit, graham crackers, or pretzels.
Notes
- This recipe is inspired by Dietitian Blair Cooley’s viral Dunkaroo dip.
- You can use non-fat, low-fat, or whole milk Greek yogurt. Non-fat options contain more protein and fewer calories, while higher fat options offer a creamier, less tangy flavor.
- Any flavor of protein powder can be used; vanilla is common and easy to find, but cake batter or birthday cake flavors can create a more authentic Dunkaroo taste.
- Maple syrup is optional and can be omitted to reduce added sugars, especially if your protein powder is already sweet.
- Nutrition facts exclude maple syrup to reflect the base dip without added sweetness.
