This is such a great sweet breakfast. I made it with blueberries as we didn’t get red currants. Loved it
Der ist super schnell gemacht und so lecker! Ich hab Pudding Pulver von natreen genommen
This turned out so well! I love that its not too sweet and so high in protein!
May i also ask how long this can be kept in the refrigerator?
Ich würde sagen, dass das Creek Yoghurt fast wie unser Quark ist. Für meinen Käsekuchen mixe ich manchmal Creek Yoghurt und einen Philadelphia Cheese zusammen.
