Today I’m going to share with you a low carb yogurt recipe that needs only 2 ingredients and it’s ready to eat in 30 seconds. If you love having yogurt in the morning this recipe will make your day better.
The flavored yogurt from the supermarket is full of hidden sugar. The best choice would be to choose plain yogurt, of course, unflavored and with the highest fat percentage. Always read nutrition labels because there are tons of different brands on the market.
This low carb yogurt is tasty, delicious and the perfect substitution for store-bought yogurt.
Those are very high in carbs and most of them have hidden sugars. The worst part is that sugar comes under at least 61 different names.
I love to serve yogurt with low sugar fruits, nuts, seeds or homemade keto granola for a quick breakfast or a snack.
There are a few brands that sell low carb yogurts but those are still full of unhealthy ingredients and I’m not a fan of those.
Ingredients for Low Carb Yogurt
At the beginning of my low carb journey, I used to eat sour cream topped with salty peanuts. It’s still one of my favorite and weirdest combo, but so good at killing cravings. So that’s when I had to come up with some kind of “yogurt recipe”. Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
- 2 cups sour cream
- 4 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- 3 tsp low carb sweetener of choice
- vanilla extract or your favorite flavoring
My yogurt version has only 4 grams of carbs for 1/2 cup. That’s a pretty awesome way to cut some carbs.

Can I eat yogurt on a keto diet or low carb diet?
- Yogurt is definitely good to eat on a low carb diet if it’s pain, unflavored and sugar-free. Chose whole milk plain yogurt that’s most likely to be more natural and have fewer additives than nonfat or low-fat yogurt.
- Greek yogurt is a good option as in its making process the whey is strained away, which lowers the fat.
- Try not to chose low-fat and nonfat yogurts because they are usually high in carbs.
- Always read the labels and ingredients lists for each packaged product. Nonfat milk powder is sometimes added to the yogurt.
- Be aware of the serving size as it may not be the entire container.
- Add your low carb toppings and flavorings to the yogurt so you know exactly how many carbs you’re consuming.
