This High Protein Vegan Yogurt Bowl is a simple way to enjoy a nourishing breakfast that keeps your energy steady all morning. It’s dairy-free (or use regular yogurt!), great for meal prep, and is one of my go-to high protein breakfasts as a busy mom.
My mission is to make healthy eating feel doable for busy moms, with quick, wholesome recipes like this protein yogurt bowl that support steady energy, balanced blood sugar, and a lifestyle that feels good (and tastes good!).
I am in my meal prep era. I’ve really been intentional about trying to meal prep a few breakfasts and lunches for my week so that I can be more efficient at work and also make sure I’m fueling myself with blood sugar balancing meals so that I can feel my best!
I’ve been very minimal with it so far, but I have the goal to keep improving and implementing this more into my weeks/weekends!
I’ve also been trying to cut out dairy recently, due to some health issues that I’m trying to figure out, so I wanted to come up with a protein yogurt bowl I could still enjoy. This yogurt bowl contains 29 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber!
If you consume dairy, you can absolutely use regular yogurt (or Greek yogurt) in this recipe! You may also love my Chocolate Hazelnut High Protein Yogurt Bowl and Chocolate Peanut Butter Yogurt Bowl.
Recipe Ingredients
You’ll need the following ingredients to make this High Protein Dairy-Free Yogurt Bowl:
Ingredient Notes
- Vegan/Dairy-Free Yogurt: I use a dairy-free cashew yogurt, but use any preferred plain dairy-free yogurt! If you consume dairy, feel free to use regular yogurt or Greek yogurt.
- Protein Powder: Be Well by Kelly’s plant-based vanilla protein powder is my go-to and what I use in this recipe. It has 20 grams of protein, 8 grams of fiber, and 0 grams net carbs. You can use any vanilla protein powder you’d like though. Look for a clean protein powder without artificial ingredients, added sugar, fillers, or gums.

- Basil Seeds or Chia Seeds: Either one is fine here! I love that basil seeds have double the fiber as chia seeds, as well as a number of other nutritional benefits.
- Cashew Butter: It’s been challenging for me to find cashew butter in grocery stores, so I order mine online. Be sure there is no added sugar. Cashew butter has a great flavor and is not as strong as a peanut butter flavor. You can definitely use any nut butter you’d like or even sunflower butter in this recipe, just know it will change the flavor profile somewhat.
- Wild Blueberries: I use frozen wild blueberries for this recipe. Any frozen blueberries will work though!
Additions & Substitutions
- Yogurt: You can use any kind of plain yogurt here (dairy-free, regular, or Greek)!
- Switch up the fruit: Try frozen strawberries, raspberries, or mixed berries instead of wild blueberries. Fresh fruit works too!
- Cashew Butter: You can use any nut butter or sunflower butter for this recipe.
- Granola: Top your yogurt bowl with this Steel-Cut Oats Granola.

Step 1: In a meal prep container, combine yogurt, protein powder, basil seeds, cashew butter, and maple syrup until well mixed.

Storage
- Prepared yogurt base: Store the mixed yogurt bowl (without fruit topping) covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
This recipe provides approximately 29 grams of protein, but it will depend on the protein powder and yogurt you use. If you use regular yogurt or Greek yogurt, it will most likely have more protein, as dairy-free yogurts usually don’t contain much.
Absolutely! Any plain yogurt will work. I always try to choose yogurt that doesn’t have added sugar in it when I can.
Yes! My kids love these protein yogurt bowls. When serving to kids, it’s especially important to use a clean protein powder with as few ingredients as possible. The protein powder I use for this recipe has 3 ingredients, which include: chocho bean, vanilla bean powder, and monk fruit extract.
I am using Be Well by Kelly Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder. It only uses three ingredients and is free from artificial flavors, added sugars, fillers, and gums.
