What you need for High Protein Strawberries & Cream Freezer Cups:
- Protein Granola (I used this one!)
- Cashew Butter
- Vanilla pudding mix
- Vanilla protein powder (I used this one!)
- Sugar Free Whipped Topping
- Fairlife Vanilla Protein Drink
- Strawberries
- Dried Strawberries
- Salt
How to make these freezer cups:
- In your food processor, add granola and cashew butter. Blend to combine.
- In a muffin pan, add silicone baking cups. I use these! Place granola mix on the bottom to lightly cover around the edges too. Do this to each cup.
- In a large bowl, combine vanilla pudding mix, protein drink, protein powder, sugar free whipped topping and salt. Whisk until fully combined.
- Chop up strawberries and fold into mix.
- Place strawberries & cream mix on each cup to fill the top. Top with crushed dried strawberries.
- Place in the freezer for 2+ hours until removing from the cup to enjoy.
How to store your Strawberries & Cream Freezer Cups:
It’s best to remove them from their silicone muffin wrapping and store in a sealed container in the freezer. Storing in a glass bowl or large freezer bag works well.
If you want to switch it up, try doing this instead:
- Use a different berry like blueberries or raspberries!
- Try adding a drizzle of chocolate or more granola on top

FAQs:
Yes! Blueberries, Blackberries or raspberries would work great here.
I’ve only tested this with this granola! I like using a protein granola to increase the overall protein in this recipe. It should work fine with another granola!
These last in the freezer for up to 3 months when stored properly.
