Total Time:
Ingredients:
| 1 1/2 cups | frozen chopped fruit (strawberries, blueberries, peaches, sweet cherries, raspberries, etc.) |
| 1/2 cup | frozen ripe banana, sliced (slice before freezing) |
| 1/2 cup | all-natural plain yogurt |
| 1 | tablespoon pure maple syrup, honey, or your favorite natural sweetener (optional, more to taste) |
| 1/2 | teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Place the frozen fruit and yogurt in the bowl of your high-powered blender or food processor. (If your food processor isn’t particularly high-powered, you might need to let your chopped, frozen fruit set out for 1-2 minutes to soften slightly before blending.)
2. Blend or process the fruit and yogurt until smooth.
3. Taste your frozen yogurt and add the maple syrup (or other sweetener) and vanilla, as desired. Blend the mixture for a few more seconds until the sweetener and vanilla are incorporated.
4. Serve immediately.
If you enjoy a more firm frozen yogurt: Freeze your frozen yogurt for up to 30 minutes before eating.
To store: While the texture of this frozen yogurt is best if eaten immediately (or after just a short freezing), it can be stored in the freezer in a sealed container for up to 1 week. Let the frozen yogurt soften on the counter for 1-2 minutes before eating from the freezer.
