Frozen Berry Yogurt

It’s so hot outside this weekend which means it’s fro-yo time in our house. I love making frozen yogurt at home because it’s super simple, and I know what is in it. This recipe actually makes a pretty healthy treat–loaded with protein and antioxidants.

These were the only ingredients I used..and let me tell you, it makes a delicious combo for a frozen snack.

The strawberries were bursting with juices.

Pulverize them in the blender.

Mix all ingredients together.

Pour into ice cream maker until it’s almost frozen, and resembles soft serve.

Freeze a little more in the freezer.

Frozen Berry Yogurt

Makes 6-8 servings

2 lb Cabot 2% vanilla bean yogurt

1 lb strawberries, hulled (about 2 cups)

2 tsp pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar, fine granulated

Pulse strawberries in a blender, just until blended. Mix all ingredients together and pour into ice cream maker, and mix until resembles soft serve (about 15-20 mins in my maker). Place in freezer to finish freezing.

PS. May need to let thaw for about 5 min before serving after frozen in freezer.

I’m so excited to be posting this blog with the Recipe Redux. We are a group of bloggers that create recipes with nutritional benefits to give healthy alternatives to old school recipes. Check out these other cool blogs to see what frozen treats they are enjoying.
