STRAWBERRY FROZEN YOGURT

This strawberry frozen yogurt recipe is beyond easy. It takes just three ingredients and 30 seconds! It’s healthy, delicious, fruity and the perfect quick dessert for hot days.

HOW TO MAKE FROZEN YOGURT (WITHOUT AN ICE CREAM MACHINE)

To make homemade strawberry frozen yogurt just add one cup of yogurt, one pound of frozen strawberries and a little honey or maple syrup to your Vitamix. Then, blend on high and use the tamper to push the frozen berries into the blade. In 30 seconds, you’re done. Yes, it really is that easy.

The frozen yogurt will be the consistency of soft serve at this point or the typical “fro yo” and if you like it soft then eat it right away. But if you’d like to firm it up a little, just add it to a storage container and freeze for an hour or two.

IS FROZEN YOGURT HEALTHY?

Let’s be clear that not all frozen yogurt is created equal. This homemade version is exponentially healthier than anything you can buy in the supermarket or frozen yogurt shop. And that’s because you can control the ingredients and the amount of sugar.

My version of strawberry frozen yogurt has three ingredients – yogurt, strawberries and honey.

WHICH TYPE OF YOGURT IS BEST TO USE?

I’m using my homemade yogurt in this recipe, but you could use store-bought yogurt as well. Just look for a plain version with no added sugar. I always grab a grass-fed dairy yogurt but regular or Greek yogurt both work, it’s totally up to you.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup yogurt (dairy or dairy-free)
• 1 lb frozen strawberries
• 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

DIRECTIONS

1. Add the yogurt, honey and strawberries to your Vitamix blender (in that order).
2. Turn the blender on high and use the tamper to push the frozen strawberries into the blades. In 30 seconds you’ll have frozen yogurt.
3. Scoop out the frozen yogurt and serve immediately or transfer to a storage container and freeze.

TIPS

• Be careful not to over-blend the frozen yogurt. It’ll get quite soft if you blend it too long.
• Have fun making ALL of your favorite frozen yogurt flavors by switching up the frozen fruit. After strawberry, my next favorite is mango – yum!
