Ingredients for Homemade Frozen Yogurt

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt)
  • 1/2 cup honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup fruit purée (e.g., strawberries, mango, or blueberries) – optional
  • Pinch of salt (enhances flavor)

Instructions

Mix the Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt, sweetener, vanilla extract, and fruit purée (if using) until smooth and well combined.

Chill the Mixture

For the best texture, refrigerate the mixture for about 1 hour to enhance the flavors.

Freeze the Yogurt

  • With an Ice Cream Maker: Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually 20–30 minutes) until it reaches a creamy consistency.
  • Without an Ice Cream Maker: Pour the mixture into a shallow dish, freeze, and stir every 30 minutes for about 2–3 hours to break up ice crystals and create a smooth texture.

Serve and Enjoy

Scoop and enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture, or freeze longer for a firmer consistency. Serve in bowls or cones and top with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
