golden-brown cinnamon rolls

by

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes

  • Chill Time: 30 minutes (optional, for firmer texture)

  • Total Time: 40 minutes

  • Yield: 2 servings

  • Difficulty / Cooking Intensity: Low (requires a high-speed blender or food processor)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

  • ½ cup Low-fat cottage cheese

  • 1 scoop (30g) Vanilla whey or casein protein powder

  • 1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice

  • 1 tsp Fresh lemon zest

  • ½ cup Fresh or frozen blueberries (divided)

  • 1 tbsp Pure maple syrup or liquid stevia (adjust to taste)

  • 2 tbsp Unsweetened almond milk (if needed to blend)

Instructions

1.Blend the Base:High intensity / speed setup.

In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, vanilla protein powder, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and sweetener. Blend on high speed for 60 to 90 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and free of cottage cheese curds. Stop to scrape down the sides as needed.

2.Incorporate the Blueberries:Low intensity / gentle pulse.

Add half of the blueberries (¼ cup) to the blender. Pulse 3 to 4 times just until the berries break down into thin purple ribbons through the lemon cream. Avoid over-blending to preserve the visual swirl and texture.

3.Assemble and Chill:Passive setting time.

Spoon the mousse evenly into two dessert glasses or small jars. Fold in or top with the remaining ¼ cup of fresh blueberries and extra lemon zest. Serve immediately for a softer whip, or refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the protein powder to hydrate and thicken into a firm mousse.
