Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Wash and hull the strawberries: Rinse the strawberries thoroughly under cold water and carefully remove the green stems and leaves from each berry.
- Combine ingredients in blender: Place the cleaned strawberries, plain yogurt, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract into a blender or food processor.
- Blend until smooth: Blend all ingredients on high speed until a creamy, smooth mixture forms with no large strawberry pieces remaining.
- Pour into container: Transfer the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container, smoothing the surface with a spatula for even freezing.
- Freeze until firm: Place the container in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until the frozen yogurt is fully set and firm enough to scoop.
- Serve: Remove the frozen yogurt from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly before scooping and serving.
Notes
- For a creamier texture, use Greek yogurt.
- Adjust sugar based on the sweetness of your strawberries.
- For added texture, stir in chopped fresh strawberries before freezing.
- Store leftover frozen yogurt in an airtight container to prevent ice crystals.
- If you prefer a dairy-free option, use coconut or almond yogurt.
