FAQs
Can I use plant-based protein powder?
Yes, but you may need extra liquid for the right consistency. Plant-based powders often absorb more moisture than whey does.
Are these desserts kid-approved?
Absolutely, kids love the sweet flavor and fun textures. They will never know these are actually healthy for them.
Do I have to use Stevia?
No, you can use any sugar-free sweetener that you prefer. Monk fruit or erythritol both work very well in these recipes.
