Description
This healthy frozen yogurt is a creamy, protein-packed treat made with Greek yogurt, frozen fruit, and natural sweeteners. Quick to prepare and easy to customize, it’s the perfect guilt-free dessert or post-workout snack.
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (whole milk or 2% for creamier results)
- 1½ cups frozen fruit (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, mango, banana)
- 2–3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- Optional: 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- Optional: 1–2 tablespoons nut butter
- Optional: 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients, ensuring the fruit is fully frozen for optimal texture.
- Add Greek yogurt, frozen fruit, sweetener, vanilla, and sea salt to a high-speed blender or food processor.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. Add a splash of milk if needed to aid blending.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity with more honey or lemon juice as desired.
- Serve immediately for soft-serve style topped with your favorite garnishes.
- For a firmer consistency, transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 1–2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes.
Notes
- Use full-fat yogurt for the creamiest texture and best freeze stability.
- Customize with different fruits, cocoa powder, or nut butters.
- For a vegan version, use coconut yogurt and maple syrup.
- Stir every 30 minutes during initial freeze to reduce iciness.
- Let sit at room temp for 10–15 minutes before scooping from the freezer.
