Delicious Vanilla Frozen Yogurt
This homemade frozen yogurt offers a rich vanilla flavor, complemented by a creamy texture that makes it hard to resist. It is a simple and enjoyable way to embrace healthier dessert options without sacrificing flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (preferably whole milk)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond or coconut milk
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or honey
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, almond or coconut milk, maple syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if necessary. If you desire a sweeter flavor, gradually add more maple syrup or honey to your liking.
- Once you have achieved your desired sweetness, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn the yogurt until it reaches a soft-serve consistency, usually around 15-20 minutes.
- If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow container and place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours, or until it reaches a creamy consistency.
- Once ready, transfer the frozen yogurt to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours for a firmer texture.
- When ready to enjoy, scoop the creamy vanilla frozen yogurt into bowls and serve immediately. You may garnish with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of your favorite topping for added flavor.
This creamy vanilla frozen yogurt is not just a healthier alternative to store-bought versions; it’s a homemade delight that brings joy with every spoonful. Enjoy this treat during warm summer days or whenever you want a moment of pure bliss.
