Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In your high-speed blender, add the blueberries, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and lemon juice. This forms the base mixture for your frozen yogurt.
- Blend Until Smooth: Pulse the ingredients in the blender until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring an even consistency without lumps.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the blended yogurt and add more honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter flavor. Blend briefly again if you add more sweetener.
- Freeze: Pour the smooth mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover it tightly, and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours (240 minutes) or until it reaches the desired firmness.
- Soften Before Serving: When ready to enjoy, remove the frozen yogurt from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, which will make scooping easier.
- Scoop and Serve: Scoop the frozen yogurt into bowls or cones and enjoy your homemade, creamy blueberry treat.
Notes
- You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries; frozen will help chill the yogurt faster.
- For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
- If you prefer a tangier flavor, add a bit more lemon juice according to taste.
- To avoid ice crystals, stir the mixture once or twice during the freezing process if possible.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
