Ingredients

  • 2 cups strawberries, chopped into small pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups thick Greek-style yogurt
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup protein or collagen peptides powder

White Chocolate Matcha Coating

  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder
  • 1 tablespoon freeze dried strawberries or strawberry powder -optional for garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, chopped strawberries, honey and protein powder until fully combined.
    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    Spoon dollops of about two tablespoons of the mixture onto the sheet to create 8-10 individual clusters or more smaller ones if desired. Leave a bit of space between each cluster to prevent them from sticking together.
    Place the tray in the freezer and freeze the clusters for at least 2 hours, or until completely solid.

White Chocolate Matcha Coating

  • Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small dish and microwave with 20 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.
    Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.
    Once melted, whisk in the matcha powder until fully incorporated, creating a uniform green coating.
    Remove the clusters and after checking they are firm and set, working quickly, dip each cluster into the melted matcha white chocolate, ensuring it’s evenly coated. 
    Use two forks to hold each cluster and one by one, dip into the melted chocolate, and roll around until fully coated, then place back on the parchment lined tray.
    Or hold each one with a fork over the melted chocolate and spoon it over letting the excess drip back into the bowl. 
    Place the coated clusters back onto the parchment-lined tray and repeat until done.
    Remove the frozen yogurt clusters from the freezer..Use a fork or spoon to help lift the cluster and allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
    Optional: Sprinkle with freeze-dried strawberries or strawberry powder for an extra pop, added flavor and decoration.
    Return the tray to the freezer and let the clusters set for at least 30 minutes, or until the coating is firm.
    Keep your clusters stored in an airtight container in the freezer, and enjoy!
    Let them thaw a bit before enjoying!
