Substitutions, optional variations & dietary adjustments

Below you’ll find a list of substitutions that will work well in this almond butter Greek yogurt recipe. 

If you try something different out, please leave a comment below letting us all know how it turned out!

Non-fat Greek yogurt – Swap nonfat for low-fat or whole milk Greek yogurt for extra creaminess, or use a dairy-free yogurt to keep it plant-based. Nonfat yogurt gives you a higher protein content, but any option will do!

Almond butter – Peanut butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter all make great alternatives – choose based on your flavor preference. You can use crunchy almond butter instead of creamy for a nice crunchy texture.

Vanilla protein powder – Use plain protein powder and add a splash of vanilla extract or a drizzle of honey for natural sweetness. Maple syrup works great to sweeten as well.
