Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 grams Instant Casein Protein Powder
- 120 milliliters Cold Skimmed Milk
- 120 grams Greek Yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored Gelatin Powder
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 60 milliliters Whipping Cream
- 50 grams Fresh Berries (optional for garnish)
- 5 leaves Mint Leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, add 3 tablespoons of cold water and sprinkle the gelatin powder over it. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the skimmed milk until it begins to steam, but do not boil.
Remove the milk from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the casein protein powder, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
Gradually add the cooled milk-gelatin mixture to the protein and yogurt mix, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
In a separate bowl, whip the cold whipping cream until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the casein mixture until fully incorporated.
Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves if desired.
