9 Best Dairy Free and Sugar Free Yogurts - sugar free

Sugar-Free Dairy Yogurts

To start off let’s take a look at the best sugar-free dairy yogurts available.

Now as a general rule of thumb, most dairy yogurts do contain naturally occurring sugar, even if there is no sugar added. This is because dairy contains lactase which is a naturally occurring sugar. This means even if you grab an added sugar-free ‘plain’ dairy yogurt at the grocery store it will tend to still contain total sugar due to the lactase.

You can then imagine my surprise when I came across Light + Fit Zero Sugar Vanilla Yogurt.

Light + Fit Zero Vanilla Yogurt is a dairy fat-free yogurt that is sugar-free and sweetened with stevia. The wild part is that it contains 0g of total sugar per serving. Light + Fit Zero Sugar Yogurts come in vanilla, strawberry, mixed berry, and peach.

You can check them out for yourself on Dannon’s website here.

However, there is some good news if you are looking for a sugar-free Greek yogurt option. I stumbled across Chobani Zero Sugar Nonfat Greek Yogurt which contains 0g of total sugar. Yes, 0g of sugar. How? Well, because this yogurt is sweetened with stevia and monk fruit.

Probiotic Dairy Yogurts

Interesting fact, there are currently a fair few probiotic added sugar-free vegan yogurts out there, but what there are not are many added sugar-free probiotic dairy yogurts.

Even though there are 0g of added sugar per serving of this yogurt there are still 5g of total sugar from the lactase.

What Kind of Yogurt Has No Sugar? – The Final Bite

What kind of yogurt has no sugar? What have we learned from the above? Well, when it comes to yogurts the great news is that there are low-sugar options available no matter what the style. Now it is more common to find lower sugar non-dairy yogurts than dairy versions (due to the presence of lactose in dairy). However, no matter what style of yogurt is your preference you will always be able to find a yogurt with no added sugars. Oh, and in case you were wondering my favorite yogurt flavor is “blueberry”. My least favorite is Rhubarb – yes, you can find Rhubarb-flavored yogurts.
