Ingredients for Chocolate Protein Pop Tarts Recipe

This healthy chocolate protein pop tarts recipe has just a few simple ingredients, and is perfect for a single serve gluten free, sugar free and Vegan protein powder dessert.

Here’s what you need for healthy chocolate protein toaster pastries:

For the Chocolate Protein Powder Pop Tarts Dough

• Oat Flour (you can make your own with rolled oats in a high speed blender)
• Chocolate Protein Powder for high protein pop tart, and also replace the sweetener.
  I recommend Protein World Slender Blend or ProteinWorld Whey for this recipe to keep it sugar free; Use the code HAYLSKITCHEN for a discount.
  Another option would be Quest.
• Peanut Butter Powder, also known as Powdered Peanut Butter. I recommend Lakanto for a sugar free version (the code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount). Or you could use the one from PbFit too.
• Non-fat Greek Yogurt contributes to the high protein part of these homemade pop tarts.

Healthy Chocolate Fudge Protein Pop Tarts Filling

• Chocolate Protein Powder I recommend the same here too: Protein World Slender Blend or  ProteinWorld Whey; Use the code HAYLSKITCHEN for a discount.
  Another option would be Quest.
• Chocolate Chips: I use the sugar free one from Lakanto here (same code HAYLSKITCHEN for a discount) 
• Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Cacao Powder

A Sugar Free Pop Tart Frosting with Protein Powder!

• Chocolate Protein Powder; (same recommendations as above^)
• Non-fat Greek Yogurt
• Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Cacao Powder

Tips for Homemade Chocolate Pop Tarts with Protein Powder

This healthy chocolate protein pop tart really is an easy homemade pop tart recipe, and here’s some tips to make sure you get it right!

• Process the dry ingredients first (oat flour, protein powder, cocoa powder and peanut butter powder)

• Use cold yogurt so that the dough does not get too sticky and hard to roll.

• Don’t over-mix the dough or it will get too warm and soft. 

• Let dough chill in fridge while making filling; You don’t want the dough to get warm.

• Don’t let dough sit out for too long; Work quickly with rolling, adding the filling, rolling and cooking. Again, you don’t want the dough to get warm.

• If needed, flour the work surface and rolling pin to prevent dough from sticking

Alternates for Healthy Chocolate Fudge Pop Tart Recipe

I recommend making this sugar free and healthy chocolate protein powder pop tart using the ingredients and products listed – since it gives the best results.

If you need other options, here’s some to try for a healthy chocolate pop tart:

• Oat Flour: 1:1 Gluten Free Baking Flour, all purpose flour or whole wheat pastry flour, in the same amount by weight, not cups
• Peanut Butter Powder: 2 teaspoon more Flour and 1 teaspoon more Protein Powder; I heaven’t tried this yet, so I’d like to know if you do!
• Chocolate Protein Powder: 1:1 Zero Calorie Monkfruit sweetener to keep it sugar free. (code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount here too).
• Coconut Yogurt in place of Greek Yogurt

Alternatives for the Chocolate Fudge Filling and topping:

• Chocolate Chips: Chopped Chocolate bar
• Protein Powder: Zero Calorie (sugar free) powdered sugar; Lakanto has an option here too.
• Almond Milk: Any regular or other non-dairy milk
• Greek Yogurt: Coconut yogurt again

A Sugar Free Vegan Protein Pop Tart Recipe

This single serve chocolate pop tart recipe has no eggs, so can easily be made Vegan too.

For the perfect homemade Vegan protein pop tart, make sure you use a plant based protein powder, coconut yogurt, and dairy free chocolate chips.
ProteinWorld has a Vegan protein blend what would work well (HAYLSKITCHEN for the discount here too).

To make Baked Protein Pop Tart instead of using Air Fryer

Instead of an air fryer pop tart, make a baked chocolate toaster pastry; Place the pop tart pastry on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 425°F for 9 minutes.
