Use your preferred milk. Fage Greek yogurt makes this high in protein, but feel free to substitute with any yogurt you like. (Or make your own!) Adjust sweetener to taste (maple syrup, honey, agave, or even a sprinkle of brown sugar.) If you’re looking for a thicker texture, you can add 1 tbsp chia seeds or reduce milk slightly. Add-ins like chopped pecans, pumpkin seeds, raisins, or granola make great mix-ins or toppings.
This will store in the fridge for up to 3 days, making it perfect for batch prepping a few jars ahead of time!
