Description

Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites are a refreshing and healthy snack perfect for hot days or whenever you crave a cool treat. Made with fresh strawberries, creamy Greek yogurt, and optional natural sweeteners and toppings, these bite-sized delights are easy to prepare and customizable to your taste. They combine the natural sweetness and tartness of strawberries with the creamy texture of yogurt, frozen to perfection for a guilt-free snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced small
  • 1 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt (or non-dairy yogurt for vegan)
  • 12 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Optional Toppings

  • Crushed nuts
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Shredded coconut
  • Chia seeds


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash, dry, remove stems, and finely dice the fresh strawberries to create small pieces that blend well in the yogurt mixture.
  2. Mix the Yogurt Base: In a bowl, thoroughly stir together the Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey if using, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Strawberries and Yogurt: Gently fold the diced strawberries into the yogurt mixture to evenly distribute them. For a smoother consistency, you can also blend the mixture slightly if desired.
  4. Portion into Molds: Spoon the strawberry yogurt mixture into mini molds or drop roughly one tablespoon per bite onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping each bite-sized portion.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle your choice of optional toppings such as crushed nuts, mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut, or chia seeds on top of each yogurt bite before freezing.
  6. Freeze the Bites: Place the molds or baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for 2 to 3 hours or until the yogurt bites are solid and firm.
  7. Store and Serve: Once frozen, transfer the strawberry frozen yogurt bites into an airtight container. Store them in the freezer for up to one month, ready to enjoy as a cool, healthy snack anytime.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, use non-dairy yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Blending the mixture after folding in strawberries gives a smoother texture; skipping this step leaves a chunkier bite with fresh strawberry pieces.
  • Customize the toppings to your preference or omit entirely for a simpler bite.
  • Use silicone molds for easy removal of frozen bites.
  • If you do not have mini molds, drop by tablespoonfuls on parchment paper and freeze.
  • Consume within one month for optimal freshness and flavor.
