Lemon Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Bites
These lemon-blueberry frozen yogurt bites, filled with probiotic yogurt and plenty of prebiotic blueberries, will help keep your gut in tip-top shape. This easy frozen snack is versatile, too—swap in raspberries or strawberries instead of blueberries for a different twist with the same health benefits.
Ingredients
-
⅓ cup freeze-dried blueberries
-
1 cup whole-milk plain strained (Greek-style) yogurt
-
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
-
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
-
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom or cinnamon
-
⅛ teaspoon salt
-
2 cups fresh blueberries
Description
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place ⅓ cup freeze-dried blueberries in a zip-top plastic bag. Using a rolling pin, crush the berries into a very fine powder. Transfer the powder to a medium bowl; stir in 1 cup yogurt, 2 tablespoons vanilla, 2 teaspoons lemon zest, ¼ teaspoon cardamom (or cinnamon) and ⅛ teaspoon salt until smooth. Add 2 cups blueberries; stir to coat.
- Using a fork, remove 1 blueberry from the yogurt, tapping excess yogurt off; use a wooden pick to push the blueberry off the fork onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining blueberries, leaving space between them. Place the baking sheet, uncovered, in the freezer until the bites are frozen, at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours. Remove from the freezer 5 minutes before serving.
