When I used to eat dairy I had this obsession over a biscuit flavored yogurt. It was amazing. Later I found out it wasn’t even vegetarian because it had gelatin it it and I was very very angry. But determined to make my own. Its just perfect for breakfast and you can add anything you want in it. This is just a base. I used to add rolled oats to the store bought one, but this one is very filling as it is. You can also add fruit.
Make sure you use whole-wheat and sugar free cookies, grain sweetened. This is breakfast, not dessert people![but I am sure some choc chips-or carob you be perfect in this]The ones I use I found them at the health food store and they are sweetened with wheat syrup.
You need :
-400gr unsweetened plain soy yogurt
-10 digestive type whole wheat grain-sweetened cookies[make sure they are vegan, but usually they are]
-21/2 tbsp agave syrup
-1tsp vanilla extract
-1/2 tsp cinnamon
-1tsp rosewater
Place cookies in a blender and crush until they become powdered. Mix with cinnamon an vanilla. Add all ingredients and mix until well combined. Chilll for at least half an hour and enjoy. Makes 2-3 servings.
Note : my cookies were not sweet at all so adjust the agave depending on the sweetness of the cookie you are using.
This is an absolutely awesome idea! I’ve never had biscuit flavoured yoghurt, but it sounds totally reasonable to me that it’s great
Wow. I’ve never had cookie yogurt, but now I am going to. This sounds amazing and so easy! I can’t wait to make it.
What does grain sweetened mean?
if you read my post I am saying that mine were sweetened with wheat syrup. Grain sweetened means that the sweetener they use instead of sugar is from grains. That can be wheat syrup, malt syrup or rice syrup. These are healthy but less sweet alternatives. I said that because I dont eat aspartame or sucralose [splenda] or other artificial sweeteners since they are not healthy.
That sounds simply delicious! I’m putting this at the top of my “to bake” list!

Also, what are your thoughts on stevia?
Erin, I like stevia, but haven’t really experiment a lot with it. I’m sure you can replace agave with a smaller amount of stevia. Let me know how that goes.

I love digestive biscuits! I’m not a huge fan of soy yogurt. Have you tried the new coconut milk yogurts? They’re awesome!
