    Phew! 😅

    I’ve been experimenting with this Jello Whip recipe all morning and boy are my arms tired!  I’m just kidding.  I actually made them in the blender, so all I had to do was hit the button a bunch of times.  Even still, the point is that I made a whole mess of whips and am going to share what I’ve learned with you today.

    You’ll thank me afterward.

    💬 What is a Jello Whip?

    A Jello Whip is this retro dessert I found in my absolute favorite cookbook, Joys of Jell-O.  There are many different editions of these cookbooks that Jell-O used to produce, and they all have their own unique charms.  People used to suspend everything and the kitchen sink in Jello!

    It was a whole thing.

    🥣 Ingredients

    The best part about this dessert is that it only needs 2 ingredients.  Plus water. I never know if I should count water? Let us say 3 ingredients then, to be safe.  You just need to buy a package of Sugar-Free Jello and some plain yogurt.  Greek yogurt makes the airiest Jello Whip, but regular plain unsweetened works fine too.

    🌈 Sugar-Free Jello Flavors

    You can use any flavor of Jello that you like in a Sugar-Free Jello Whip.  I tend to choose the red colors because they taste the best, but you can fight me on this one in the comments if you like.  You might not be able to find all of the flavors in your local store, but you can find them all on Amazon.

    🍚 Naturally Sweetened Jello

    Now, you probably haven't heard of the last brand of Jello on the list, GramZero. (I only learned about it last month, and I am the Queen of Jello!) It's definitely worth a look though. GramZero is the only sugar-free gelatin dessert without artificial sweeteners. It's sweetened with all-natural stevia leaf, so you don't need to worry about the chemicals used in Jello.

    📖 Instructions

    1. Add ¾ cup boiling water to a medium sized bowl.  Pour in Jello powder and stir until fully dissolved.
    2. Make 1 cup ice water by measuring out 1 cup of ice, and pouring water in until it fills the cup.
    3. Add ice water to the dissolved Jello and mix until ice melts.
    4. Add Jello mixture and 1 cup yogurt to a blender and blend on high for 30 seconds.
    5. Pour the Jello into serving glasses or a medium sized bowl and chill for 2 hours.

    two Sugar Free Jello Whips

    🥛 Dairy Free Substitutions

    • Plain Greek Style Almond Milk Yogurt:  (Kite Hill brand) If you are on a low carb diet, then this is your best choice because Jello Whips made from almond milk yogurt have just 2g net carbs.  Plus, it is the only Greek style non-dairy yogurt substitute that I could find, so it will whip up the best.
    • Cashew Milk Yogurt:  (Forager brand) Jello Whips made from cashew milk yogurt will have 4g net carbs.  Be a little wary of the label though, because they claim that it has 1g of sugar in large print on the front.  But when you read the nutritional info, you can see that it actually has 8g net carbs per ½ cup serving.  So, while technically true, it is a little bit misleading for low carb dieters.

    • Protein Almond and Soy Milk Yogurt:  (Kite Hill brand) These Jello Whips will have 4g net carbs as well, and they also say 1g sugar on the label.  It is nice to sneak a little extra protein in though.  It will have 8g of protein, which isn’t too shabby.  And if you buy the small 1 serving size container, you can just use 2 of them and skip measuring out the yogurt.
    • Vanilla Soy Milk Yogurt:  (Silk brand) I actually don’t recommend that you use soy milk yogurt if you are on a low carb diet, because the Jello Whips will have 9.5g of net carbs.  But it is a good alternative, if you aren’t on one.  And if you combine the vanilla soy milk yogurt with Sugar-Free Orange Jello, it’ll taste just like an orange creamsicle.
    • Coconut Milk Yogurt:  Do not use coconut milk yogurt.  I repeat.  Do not attempt to use coconut milk yogurt!  It won’t jell right and everyone will be sad, including me.

    Like I said, Phew! 😅

    It’s sure a lot of info for a recipe that takes all of 10 minutes to make.  After the Sugar-Free Jello Whips take a quick trip into the fridge, you'll have a dreamy, creamy, fruity dessert with only 35 calories and 2g net carbs. They are pretty spectacular if I do say so myself.

    Alright, now it’s time to kick up my feet and relax. 😉

        You can try using half of the yogurt, which is the only ingredient that has carbs.

      Hi,
      I love this idea it sounds delicious....one question...how thick does the jello need to be before I blend it and the yogurt together?
      Thank you so much for these great recipes.

        It's not going to be very thick at all. Just follow the instructions as written and it'll turn out well.

            Thanks for the tip! Watch the carb count when you sub in whipped cream though. It's got exactly twice the carbs as cool whip.

      It is not normal for it to separate like that. It could be that the yogurt you used was full fat and it rose to the top.

      How can this be done without artificial sweeteners in it. I'm allergic to anything with aspartame or saccharine etc in. In any case artificial sweeteners are carcinogenic and so bad for you

        I suppose you could make a Jello whip with a combination of unflavored gelatin, lemon juice, yogurt and stevia. I don't care the taste of stevia though, so it's not something I'm going to experiment with.

        Both Fage and Oikos make nonfat Greek yogurt with 2g carbs per 1/4 cup serving. And each serving of these Jello Whips uses 1/4 cup.

            Sugar Free Jello already has sweetener, so you don't need to add any. If this is about the earlier comment from the person who can't eat artificial sweeteners, then I don't know. You'd need to just experiment with making Jello out of unflavored gelatin, lemon and monk fruit and then whip in yogurt.

    I'm Emily, the diabetic behind Resolution Eats. Many years ago, I made a New Year's resolution to switch to a low carb diet. It improved both my health and my outlook on life. Since then, I've come up with hundreds of Keto recipes for everything from soup to nuts. And this blog is a way for me to share the low carb love. Cheers!
